Plan Description
Prepare to conquer the Half Distance Triathlon Brasília with confidence, precision, and strength. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Brazil’s capital, this iconic race features a 1.9 km swim in the serene waters of Lake Paranoá, a fast 90 km bike ride across the city’s expansive avenues, and a scenic 21.1 km run through lush, tree-lined parks. With warm air temperatures reaching 82°F (28°C) and water temps around 76°F (24°C), proper preparation is essential to achieve your personal best.
About the 44-Week Intermediate Training Plan
🎯 Start Strong, Finish Unstoppable:
No prior base training is necessary. Whether you're starting from scratch or building on existing fitness, the first 12 weeks focus on establishing a rock-solid aerobic foundation. This essential phase ensures you develop the endurance needed for race day success.
🚀 Elevate Your Performance:
After the initial base period, you'll move into a 32-week race-specific phase, specifically crafted for the Half Distance Triathlon Brasília. Your training time will gradually build from a manageable 9 hours in the first week to a 14-hour peak, giving your body time to adapt while avoiding burnout.
🏋️♂️ Strength Through Diversity:
Expect a complete, well-rounded approach: base endurance rides, tempo-paced runs, open-water swim practice, and progressive brick workouts designed to simulate race conditions. Strength training and technique-focused sessions ensure you develop durability and efficiency, vital for handling Brasília’s flat but deceptively challenging course. Plus, you'll be introduced to VO2 interval training and anaerobic threshold development to sharpen speed and stamina.
🎥 Visualize, Execute, Succeed:
Exclusive instructional videos guide you through critical swim drills and strength workouts. Structured run and bike sessions based on heart rate and power zones help you maximize every minute of training. With these resources, you'll train smarter, not just harder.
🏆 Tailored for the Intermediate Triathlete:
This plan is built for athletes like you — those ready to move beyond "finishing" and aim for excellence. You'll experience personal growth, greater confidence, and peak performance by race day.
Take the next step toward your best performance — secure your training plan today and start your journey to the finish line with power and purpose!
