Plan Description

HALF DISTANCE TRIATHLON CHATTANOOGA

🏁 Unlock Your Full Triathlon Potential—Built for Senior Triathletes 60+

The Half Distance Triathlon in Chattanooga offers a unique and scenic challenge: a 1.4-mile swim in the Tennessee River, a rolling 56-mile bike through North Georgia, and a 13.1-mile run through Chattanooga’s vibrant downtown. With landmarks like Lookout Mountain, Veterans Bridge, and Riverfront Parkway lining your course, your race deserves a training plan just as epic.

That’s why we’ve created this 44-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan, tailored specifically for senior triathletes aged 60 and over. Whether you’re new to endurance sports or a returning athlete, this plan is designed to help you arrive at Ross’s Landing confident, strong, and race-ready.

Why This Training Plan Works for You:
✅ Age-Smart Periodization: Our 2:1 build-to-recovery cycles are structured to support recovery and prevent burnout—perfect for the 60+ athlete.

✅ Foundation First: A 12-week base phase focuses on strength, mobility, and aerobic fitness before building into race-specific work.

✅ Safe Endurance Gains: Long Zone 2/3 efforts develop cardiovascular fitness without overtaxing your joints or energy systems.

✅ Speed with Safety: VO2 max intervals and neuromuscular drills are included to maintain speed and sharpen reaction time.

✅ Strength that Supports Longevity: 98 dedicated sessions target bone density, balance, and muscle maintenance.

✅ Fully Integrated: Compatible with Garmin, smartwatches, and platforms that track heart rate, power, and RPE—no guesswork, just guided progress.

✅ Senior-Focused Design: Programming considers joint care, sleep recovery, and flexibility specific to athletes over 60.
