Plan Description

Training for the Half Distance Triathlon in Buenos Aires demands a strategic approach that matches the race’s unique swim, bike, and run challenges. This comprehensive 44-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is expertly designed for athletes aged 60 and over, ensuring you build endurance, strength, and confidence for race day.

The race features a calm, warm-water swim in Lago Regatas (1.9 km, two loops), a fast and flat 90 km bike on Buenos Aires Highway, and a scenic 21.1 km run through Palermo’s rolling streets. This plan perfectly aligns with those demands, helping you master each segment through a progressive, injury-conscious approach.

Key Benefits of This Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan
✅ Senior-Friendly Base Phase: Start with a 12-week gradual build that increases aerobic capacity and muscular endurance, ensuring a safe and steady foundation tailored for senior athletes.

✅ Endurance Without Overload: Long, low-intensity sessions focus on sustainable aerobic fitness, minimizing injury risk while enhancing your stamina for the full race distance.

✅ Strength and Bone Health: Targeted resistance workouts maintain muscle mass and bone density, crucial for staying strong through the entire Half Distance Triathlon.

✅ Speed and Aerobic Capacity: High-intensity intervals (VO2 max sessions) boost your race pace and overall performance to handle the flat, fast bike and the run.

✅ Neuromuscular Skills: Drill-based swim and transition training improve efficiency and reaction time, giving you smooth race transitions.

✅ Smart Training Tech: Compatible with Garmin, smartwatches, and popular platforms, workouts adjust using heart rate, power, or perceived effort for personalized progress.

✅ Injury Prevention & Recovery: Thoughtful programming balances hard work with recovery, reducing joint stress and overuse injuries common in older athletes.

Program Structure Highlights
Phase 1 (12 weeks): Build aerobic base, focus on technique and movement efficiency across swim, bike, and run.

Phase 2 (32 weeks): Peak training volume with brick sessions, pacing workouts, and race-specific intervals to prepare you fully for Buenos Aires.

This Half Distance Triathlon training plan is your pathway to finishing strong and enjoying every moment of the iconic Buenos Aires course.
