Plan Description

Preparing for the Half Distance Triathlon Cozumel Mexico means getting ready for a flat, fast course through tropical heat, ocean waters, and vibrant downtown energy. This 36-week training plan is expertly crafted to help senior triathletes (age 60+) build endurance, maintain strength, and sharpen race-day skills—all while staying injury-free and time-efficient.

🌊 How This Plan Prepares You for Cozumel’s Swim
The program begins with a 12-week base phase focused on joint mobility, aerobic conditioning, and technique. Cozumel’s 1.9KM ocean swim demands confidence and control in warm, open water.
✅ Video-based swim drills build form and comfort in open-water conditions
✅ Gradual volume increases match the demands of Cozumel’s long swim
✅ Neuromuscular coordination sessions sharpen sighting and entry techniques

🚴 Optimized for Cozumel’s Flat, Scenic Bike Course
The 90KM bike route around the island is fast but windy. This plan includes structured indoor and outdoor bike sessions tailored to build steady-state power and fatigue resistance.
✅ Power and heart rate-based rides ensure consistent pacing and effort
✅ Brick workouts mimic race-day transitions for smoother bike-to-run execution
✅ Aerobic base rides support strong, sustainable energy output

🏃 Ready for Cozumel’s Flat, Hot Run Course
You’ll be running 21KM loops along the waterfront and through the historic downtown—cheered on by crowds, but exposed to heat.
✅ Race-paced tempo and threshold runs build efficiency and confidence
✅ Heat-adaptation strategies embedded through progressive conditioning
✅ Strength training ensures your stride remains powerful and injury-resistant

🔥 Built for Senior Triathletes—From Base to Peak
This plan respects your age, experience, and recovery needs.
✅ Starts at just 7.5 hours/week, peaking at 12 hours/week
✅ 2:1 work-to-recovery cycle ensures consistent, sustainable gains
✅ Bone and muscle-focused strength training built in for durability

💬 Need guidance along the way? Every plan includes personalized coach email support to help you stay on track, troubleshoot challenges, and prepare with confidence.

🎯Whether you’re aiming to complete with confidence or compete with strength, this structured, science-based plan gives you the tools to succeed—especially in the unique climate and terrain of Cozumel.
