Plan Description
Conquer Eagleman: Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan for Senior Triathletes 60+
Train Smarter. Stay Strong. Race Confident.
This is not just any race—it's a flat, fast, and often windy course that demands smart pacing, durable fitness, and a calm mind in the face of race-day heat and tidal river currents.
Our 36-week training plan is built specifically for Senior Triathletes like you—athletes who want to race strong without risking injury or burnout. Whether you're returning from time off or building on years of experience, this plan meets you where you are and guides you to peak performance.
Why This Plan Works for Eagleman
✅ Tidal Swim Preparation – Training includes sighting, current management, and drills to simulate open water in the Choptank River.
✅ Wind-Resilient Cycling – Structured workouts build power and efficiency for Eagleman's flat, wind-prone 56-mile bike leg through the Blackwater Wildlife Refuge.
✅ Heat-Adapted Run Training – You'll practice pacing and hydration strategies to handle Eagleman’s sunny, 80°F+ double out-and-back run course.
✅ Senior-Specific Strength & Mobility – Maintain joint health, muscle mass, and balance throughout all 36 weeks.
✅ Device-Ready Workouts – Fully compatible with Garmin, WAHOO, and smart watches.

🔹 Weeks 13–24 (Build Phase): Add focused tempo workouts, bricks, and open water simulation.
🔹 Weeks 25–36 (Peak Phase): Dial in your threshold, transitions, and race-day tactics for Eagleman success.
