Plan Description

The Half Distance Triathlon Cozumel Mexico features a warm ocean swim, a fast and scenic island bike course, and a flat, vibrant run through downtown. To perform your best on race day, you need a training plan built to match the unique demands of this course—especially if you’re a Masters athlete over 40.

That’s exactly what this 24-week Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan delivers.

✅ Tailored for Masters Athletes 40+ – Every workout is designed with the needs of aging athletes in mind, emphasizing recovery, injury prevention, and performance gains.
✅ Race-Specific Preparation – You'll build confidence in warm-water swimming, flat-course biking, and running in the heat with sessions that mimic Cozumel’s unique challenges.
✅ Progressive Periodization – Our smart 3:1 build/recovery structure improves endurance, power, and race-day execution without risking burnout.
✅ Endurance-to-Speed Focus – Start by building a strong aerobic base, then shift to intensity with VO₂ max and threshold workouts to sharpen your speed.
✅ Comprehensive Strength Training 💪 – Functional, mobility-focused routines increase durability and reduce injury—critical for mature athletes.
✅ Data-Driven Training – Sessions use Heart Rate, Power, and RPE to give you flexibility and control.
✅ Video Swim Drills & Smart Integration 🏊 – Improve technique and connect seamlessly with your smart devices.

🏁 Why this plan works for Cozumel:

Swim: You’ll be ready for the 1.9KM warm, crystal-clear, ocean swim with technique-focused sessions and pacing strategies for a smooth rolling start.

Bike: Long intervals and steady-state rides prepare you to maintain power and speed over Cozumel’s flat, breezy 90KM course.

Run: Heat-adapted brick sessions and long runs mimic Cozumel’s two-lap, downtown run, building resilience and mental focus.

🎯 If you can currently swim 1,500 meters, bike 30 miles, and run 5 miles, you're ready to start. This plan builds from 7.5 to 12.5 hours per week, balancing intensity with smart recovery to get you to the start line healthy, fit, and fast.

Your Half Distance Triathlon goals are within reach—let’s get there together.
✅ Includes personalized email coach support so you’re never training alone.

👉 Start your Cozumel journey today and train with purpose.
