Plan Description

Master Your Race Day: How This Training Plan Prepares You for the Half Distance Wisconsin Triathlon

If you're training for the Half Distance Triathlon in Wisconsin and you're over 40, this 44-week plan is built for you. From your first stroke in Lake Monona to your final steps past the Capitol Building, every phase of this program is designed to meet the physical demands and terrain of this unforgettable course.

🏊 Swim Preparedness for Lake Monona
The plan begins with foundational swim training that includes weekly technique drills and endurance-focused sets—perfect for mastering the open-water, clockwise swim at Law Park Beach. You’ll build confidence navigating buoys spaced every 100 yards and acclimate to the average 75°F (24°C) water temperature, just like race day.

🚴 Crush the Hills of Madison’s Countryside
The 56-mile bike course is not just scenic—it’s tough, with over 2,000 ft of elevation gain. This plan strategically incorporates hill repeats, power-based intervals, and brick workouts to improve your climbing strength, pacing, and transition speed.
✅ Elevation-ready training to build leg durability
✅ Brick sessions to simulate bike-to-run fatigue

🏃 Conquer the Rolling Run Through Downtown Madison
Your training will prepare you to pace wisely on the undulating 13.1-mile run through downtown, finishing at the iconic Capitol. You'll develop the aerobic capacity and muscular endurance to hold strong through the final mile.
✅ VO₂ max intervals to boost speed and stamina
✅ Race simulation runs to perfect pacing

Designed for Masters Athletes (40+)
This plan recognizes your unique needs. With 3 weeks of training followed by 1 recovery week, you’ll avoid overtraining and stay motivated across all 44 weeks.

🏋️‍♂️ Benefits Built-In for Long-Term Success
✅ Masters-specific strength training for injury prevention
✅ Video-guided swim drills for technical improvement
