Plan Description
If you're preparing for the Half Distance Triathlon in Louisville, this 44-week triathlon training plan is built to help senior athletes (age 60+) arrive at race day strong, confident, and well-prepared—especially for the specific demands of this iconic course.
🏊♂️ Swim Preparation:
The plan includes progressive open-water simulation workouts, ideal for preparing you to tackle the Ohio River’s unique point-to-point, downriver swim. You'll build comfort with sighting, current management, and pacing—so you're ready for a smooth finish at the Great Lawn.
🚴 Bike Readiness for Rolling Terrain:
Louisville's 56-mile ride through Oldham County’s horse country means steady climbs and descents. This plan develops your aerobic base with long, low-intensity rides and safely integrates power-focused intervals to build leg strength and stamina for the course’s rolling hills—all while prioritizing joint care and recovery.
🏃 Run Performance for Urban + Park Terrain:
From downtown stretches to Cherokee Park's shade, the 13.1-mile run blends flat road and subtle elevation. You'll train with brick workouts that simulate the fatigue of race-day transitions. Your body learns how to pace and maintain form deep into the run.
✨ Key Benefits for Master Athletes:
✅ Age-specific design for athletes 60+—safe, progressive, and realistic
✅ Personalized support with optional email-based coach guidance
✅ Drills that build efficiency in swim strokes, pedaling, and running form
✅ Strength training for muscle preservation and injury prevention
✅ VO2 max and interval work to retain speed and aerobic capacity
✅ Periodized structure with built-in recovery to avoid overtraining
✅ Technology-friendly—fully compatible with Garmin and other training apps
