Plan Description
The Half Distance Ruidoso Triathlon is a uniquely demanding event. This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is built precisely for those demands, especially for Masters athletes over 40.
✅ Swim-Ready for Altitude and Open Water
The structured swim progression improves your efficiency and confidence in open water. Integrated video-supported drills help you adapt to the cooler lake temperatures and two-lap rhythm of Grindstone Lake—while endurance sets build the aerobic resilience needed at altitude.
✅ Bike Strength for Climbing and Altitude
With progressive long rides, intervals, and power-based sessions, this plan prepares your legs and lungs for the challenging elevation gains and the steady grind toward Hondo. Structured brick workouts teach you to run strong after climbing hard.
✅ Run Durability for Mountain Terrain
Run sessions are designed for undulating terrain, with track session, and tempo intervals. You’ll build durability, pacing skills, and confidence for a strong finish in Midtown Ruidoso.
✅ Designed for Athletes Over 40
With a 3:1 periodized structure, this plan balances challenge with recovery to reduce injury risk and prevent burnout. Masters-specific strength training and flexibility work support muscle preservation and long-term resilience.
✅ Personalized Support
Every plan includes direct email coach support, so you’re never training alone. Ask questions, adjust for travel, or get help managing fatigue—we’re with you every step of the way.
✅ Time-Efficient and Scalable
Starting at 7.5 hours per week and peaking near 12, the training is manageable for busy athletes who still want high-quality performance. Whether returning from a break or stepping up from shorter distances, this plan gives you a clear, progressive path.
The Half Distance Ruidoso Triathlon rewards smart, focused preparation. This plan is your roadmap to race-day confidence, efficient performance, and finishing strong in one of New Mexico’s most beautiful endurance events.
