Plan Description
If you're racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Knokke-Heist, Belgium, this expertly built 24-week training plan was designed with you in mind—especially if you're a competitive Masters athlete over 40 looking for structure, strategy, and results.
Knokke-Heist presents a unique challenge: a tidal-free swim in the historic Damsche Vaart, a fast and flat 90K bike course through the Dutch and Belgian countryside, and a run along the lively beachfront promenade of the Zeedijk, surrounded by cheering crowds. This Half Distance Triathlon demands a training plan that goes beyond volume—it requires precision.
✅ Tailored for Masters Athletes 40+
Train smarter, not harder. This plan accounts for recovery needs, injury prevention, and long-term sustainability.
✅ 24 Weeks of Structured Progression
With a 3:1 build-to-recover ratio, you'll gradually increase training volume (starting at 7.5 hrs/week and peaking at 12.5 hrs) while allowing time for adaptation.
✅ Endurance First, Speed Later
Early weeks focus on aerobic conditioning to build your base. Later, we shift into threshold and VO₂ max sessions so you peak at the right time.
✅ Strength Work That Matters
Mobility- and durability-focused strength training tailored for aging athletes—backed by demo videos for safe and effective execution.
✅ Dialed-In Swim, Bike & Run Workouts
All sessions use RPE, heart rate, and power metrics for targeted, data-driven progress. Swim drills led by expert coaches will sharpen your technique for the flat, calm waters of Sluis.
✅ Tech-Integrated, Athlete-Focused
Auto-synced workouts, power-based bike intervals, and HR-guided runs—all designed to help you train smarter and race stronger.
