Plan Description

Ready to conquer the Half Distance Triathlon in Galveston, Texas? With its fast, flat course and scenic coastal setting, this race is made for strong performances. This 44-week training plan is expertly crafted for Senior Triathletes 60+, helping you show up prepared, confident, and race-day ready.

Why This Plan Works for Senior Triathletes 60+:
🏖 Designed for Galveston’s Course
Galveston’s calm bay swim, flat Gulf Coast bike leg, and three-loop run demand consistent pacing and heat management. This plan prepares you for every challenge—sun, wind, and all.

🏊 Progress Without Burnout
Start with a manageable 12-week base phase—even if you’re new to endurance sports. Then transition into 32 weeks of triathlon-specific training with race simulations, brick workouts, and built-in recovery weeks.

💪 Tailored for Athletes 60+
Includes joint-friendly strength training, mobility work, and smart scheduling that respects recovery needs and boosts longevity.

📲 Tech-Savvy and Structured
Fully compatible with Garmin and other smart devices. Train using heart rate, power, or RPE—you’ll know exactly how to push and when to rest.

What You’ll Gain:
✅ Confidence in race conditions—dial in your pacing and nutrition for Galveston’s spring temps (~76°F).
✅ Smoother open water skills in bay-like swim drills.
✅ Stronger bike splits through wind-aware interval training.
