Plan Description

You’re not new to this. You’ve raced before, you’ve trained through early mornings and late nights, and now you’re eyeing something bigger—the Half Distance Triathlon at Jones Beach. This isn’t just another event; it’s a chance to prove your strength, experience, and discipline on a course built for speed and grit.

This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is specifically engineered for Masters athletes over 40—those of us who know that smart, structured training beats reckless volume every time.

🔥 Why This Plan Works—Especially for Athletes 40+
✅ Built-in Recovery to Avoid Burnout: A 3:1 load-to-recovery cycle helps you stay consistent and avoid injury.
✅ Masters-Specific Strength Workouts: Maintain lean muscle, build durability, and stay race-ready.
✅ Heart Rate & Power-Based Training: Dial in your training zones for smarter, more efficient workouts.
✅ Time-Efficient Weekly Structure: Peak at just 12 hours/week—ideal for busy professionals and parents.
✅ Email Support from a Certified Coach: You’re never training alone—we’ve got your back.

🌊 Swim Strong in Zach’s Bay
You’ll build open-water confidence with progressive swim sets and video-supported drills—ideal for the calm but chilly 65°F waters of this protected bay.

🚴‍♂️ Power Through Wantagh Parkway
With race-specific bike intervals, tempo rides, and bricks, you'll be ready to attack this smooth, closed-course ride like it’s your personal time trial.

🏃‍♂️ Run with Purpose on the Boardwalk
Train for speed and control with run sessions that mirror the flat, fast, and mentally demanding out-and-backs along the iconic white sands of Jones Beach.

🎯 Designed for Your Comeback or Your Next Big Goal
Whether you're returning after a layoff or leveling up from Olympic distance, this Half Distance Triathlon plan gives you a clear, science-backed path to peak performance.

👊 Masters don’t train harder—they train smarter.
