Plan Description

Half Distance Triathlon Victoria Canada – Dominate Elk Lake with the Ultimate Masters 40+ Training Plan

Ready to conquer the scenic and challenging course of the Half Distance Triathlon Victoria Canada? This is not just a race—it's a test of endurance, strength, and grit. Whether you're aiming for a personal best or the podium, our Competitive Masters 40+ Six-Month Training Plan is your edge.

This expertly designed program prepares you to master the single-loop swim in Elk Lake, the hilly 90 km ride past the Haro Strait and Saanich Inlet, and the two-lap run around the beautiful Beaver and Elk Lake trails. With over 3,000 feet of climbing on the bike and soft trail running underfoot, this course rewards focused training and smart race execution—exactly what this plan delivers.

Why This Training Plan Works for the Victoria Course:
✔ Tailored for Masters 40+ Athletes – Age-smart progression, recovery, and strength
✔ Built for Elevation & Endurance – 3:1 build/recovery cycle to adapt to the hilly bike terrain
✔ Trail Run Specificity – Boosts durability for the soft, two-lap run course
✔ Swim Confidence – Race-day simulations prepare you for the buoy-marked loop in Elk Lake
✔ Weather-Aware Training – Prepares you for Victoria’s cool 62°F (17°C) race day conditions

What You’ll Get in the 24-Week Plan:
✅ Structured Training Hours – Start at 7.5 hours/week and peak at 12.5 hours/week
✅ Swim/Bike/Run Precision – RPE, heart rate, and power-based workouts
