If you’re a dedicated Masters triathlete over 40, the Half Distance Triathlon in Emilia-Romagna isn’t just another race—it’s your opportunity to race through history, ride past flamingos, and finish strong on the storied streets of Cervia. And to get there, you need a training plan designed for you—not a generic template built for younger athletes with unlimited recovery.
🎯 This 24-week Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is engineered for experienced athletes 40+ who are ready to race smarter, stronger, and longer. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or aiming to finish with pride, this plan respects your experience, honors your time, and prepares your body to thrive on race day.
But here’s the truth: success on race day starts long before the first mile of the plan.
🏗️ You need a solid aerobic base before beginning. If you're not yet swimming 1,500m, biking 30 miles, or running 5 miles comfortably, take time to build your foundation. Your longevity and success in the sport depend on it.
Once your base is set—this plan will take you the rest of the way.
