Plan Description
Embarking on the Half Distance Triathlon Valdivia Chile is a thrilling challenge—and this 44-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is crafted especially for senior athletes 60+ who are ready to embrace it with strength, wisdom, and confidence. Whether you’re returning to the sport or stepping into triathlon for the first time, this plan empowers you to build endurance, boost your power, and race smartly on one of Chile’s most beautiful courses.
The 1.9 km swim in the crisp, clear waters of the Calle-Calle River demands calm, precise technique—and you’ll develop that through targeted swim drills designed to improve your stroke efficiency and comfort in wetsuit conditions. As you transition to the 90 km bike through Valdivia’s lush countryside, this plan’s blend of endurance rides and strategic interval training prepares you to tackle flat stretches and short hills with power and grace. Finally, the 21.1 km flat run across iconic bridges and along the riverfront requires pacing and neuromuscular coordination—both sharpened by run-specific drills and smart pacing strategies tailored for longevity and speed.
🎯 Refine Without Burnout: Optional “B” and “C” races are thoughtfully integrated to let you test pacing, nutrition, and mindset without overreaching before your main event. This approach respects your body’s need for sustainable progression, perfect for master and senior athletes who want to race stronger and wiser.
Key Benefits for Senior Triathletes:
✅ Build a solid aerobic base with a 12-week beginner-friendly phase
