Train Smarter, Race Stronger: For Masters 40+ Athletes Who Mean Business
.
Our Competitive Masters 40+ Six-Month Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is crafted for athletes like you—experienced, motivated, and ready to step up. This structured 24-week program goes beyond general fitness. It targets the specific demands of the Venice-Jesolo course: sustained speed on the flat bike leg, efficiency in open-water swimming, and resilience during a warm, looped run on a mix of shaded paths and sunlit promenade.
