Plan Description

Race the Half Distance Panama Triathlon with Elite-Level Training for Master Athletes 40+

The Half Distance Panama Triathlon is a unique challenge featuring breathtaking views of Panama City, the Panama Canal, and the Puente de las Americas Bridge. The race includes a 1.2-mile swim in the Panama Canal, a 56-mile bike ride through Panamaโ€™s iconic skyline, and a 13.1-mile run along the Calzada de Amador. To succeed in this race, you need a structured training planโ€”and our 44-week elite-level plan is designed to prepare you for every aspect of it.
