Plan Description
This 44-week beginner training plan is designed to prepare you for the Half Distance Triathlon in Puerto Princesa, ensuring that you develop the necessary endurance, strength, and race-specific skills to excel on race day. Here’s how the structured program aligns with the demands of the event:
1. Swim Preparation (1.9 km) – Calm Open Water Conditions
The foundational 12-week phase focuses on building base endurance and improving swim technique, which is crucial for navigating Puerto Princesa’s warm, calm waters efficiently. The instructional video swimming drills enhance stroke efficiency and breathing control, helping you conserve energy for the rest of the race.
2. Bike Readiness (90 km) – Rolling Two-Loop Course
Puerto Princesa’s mix of hills and flats requires a balanced training approach. The structured RPE/Heart Rate-based bike sessions progressively build stamina for sustained efforts on rolling terrain. Additionally, V02 interval training improves aerobic capacity, making hill climbs more manageable and ensuring you maintain a strong pace throughout the ride.
3. Run Stamina (21.1 km) – Rolling Course with a Steady Uphill Start
The three-loop course with an uphill start requires strong leg endurance and pacing strategy. The training plan incorporates RPE/Heart Rate-structured run sessions, guiding you to manage pace effectively and adapt to elevation changes. The inclusion of anaerobic threshold training ensures you can push through fatigue and maintain speed across loops.
4. Race-Day Conditioning – Hot and Humid Climate (86°F/30°C)
With Puerto Princesa’s tropical heat, the gradual weekly training progression (from 9.5 to 14 hours) builds endurance while allowing for heat adaptation. Structured workouts and strength sessions prepare your body to withstand fatigue, helping prevent overheating and muscle exhaustion on race day.
Final Takeaway
This 44-week program ensures a smooth progression from base building to peak performance, equipping you with the necessary skills, endurance, and mental strength to confidently tackle the Half Distance Triathlon in Puerto Princesa.
