Plan Description
🏁 Race Strong at the Eagleman Half Distance Triathlon
Elite Training Plan for Senior Triathletes 60+
Cambridge, Maryland’s iconic Half Distance Triathlon Eagleman is flat, fast—and deceptively tough. With a tidal river swim, wind-swept bike course, and exposed run through the scenic Algonquin neighborhood, you need more than grit. You need smart, senior-focused training built for performance, safety, and endurance.
💪 This 44-week Half Distance Triathlon plan is designed specifically for athletes 60+. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or finishing your first race, this plan helps you master the unique challenges of Eagleman—without breaking down your body.
