Plan Description
Our Intermediate 36-Week Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is built to prepare you for every detail of this unique European race experience.
The swim course in the tidal-free Damsche Vaart offers calm, predictable waters — ideal for executing the open water skills you’ll build in our structured swim sessions. You’ll work on form, strength, and tempo sets to ensure you're race-ready in 64°F (18°C) conditions.
The one-lap 90 km bike course is flat, fast, and scenic — but requires sustained power and race-day discipline. This plan develops both, with workouts based on heart rate and power zones, progressive intervals, and brick sessions that mimic the demands of this Belgian-Dutch terrain.
And when it’s time to tackle the 21.1 km run on the vibrant beachfront promenade of Knokke-Heist, your legs will be primed. Our program builds run endurance with race-specific pacing, tempo efforts, and strength conditioning to help you stay strong over three spectator-filled laps to the finish.
✅ Structured Periodization – Built around a 3-week build / 1-week recovery cycle to maximize gains while reducing injury risk
✅ Phase-Based Development – 12-week base phase, followed by 24 weeks of Half Distance-specific training
✅ Progressive Volume – Start at 7.5 hours/week, peak at 12 hours, with smart intensity layering
✅ Integrated Strength & Mobility – Maintain resilience across your training load
✅ Device-Compatible – Workouts sync with Garmin for ease and precision
✅ Technique + Endurance Focus – Balanced development across swim, bike, and run
