Are you new to triathlon and setting your sights on the Half Distance Triathlon in Buenos Aires? Whether this is your first half distance event or your first finish line ever, this 44-week beginner training plan is built to meet your needs—with structure, simplicity, and expert support every step of the way.
The swim in calm Lago Regatas, the fast, flat 90 km bike along the iconic Buenos Aires Highway, and the scenic 21.1 km run through Palermo require more than just endurance—they demand strategy, confidence, and race-day readiness. That’s exactly what this plan delivers.
