Plan Description

Half Distance Triathlon Peru – 36-Week Training Plan to Dominate Race Day

Set along Peru’s stunning Pacific coastline, the Half Distance Triathlon Peru is a fast, flat race perfect for athletes aiming to PR. With a calm 1.2-mile swim at Agua Dulce Beach, a traffic-free 56-mile ride along the scenic Costa Verde highway, and a 13.1-mile beachfront run, this course demands speed, strategy, and strength. Race-day temps hover around 74°F (24°C)—ideal for performance, but only if your preparation is precise.

This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is built specifically for competitive athletes over 40 who are ready to level up. Whether you're coming off a break or just finished shorter races, the plan strategically prepares you to thrive on Peru’s unique course layout.
