Plan Description

As a Master triathlete, you know that smart, targeted training is the key to unlocking your best performance—especially at a race like the Half Distance Triathlon La Quinta. This 36-week training plan is thoughtfully crafted to meet the unique demands of athletes over 40, helping you prepare to conquer the calm 1.9km swim in Lake Cahuilla, the fast, flat 56-mile bike loop, and the scenic, two-loop 13.1-mile run through Silver Rock Golf Resort.

Here’s why this plan is built for your success:

✅ Protect and Preserve Your Body
This plan respects the realities of training as a Master athlete with a balanced 3:1 load and recovery cycle. It prioritizes injury prevention, reduces fatigue, and supports muscle preservation through Masters-specific strength training.

✅ Build Endurance with Confidence
The Base Phase carefully rebuilds your aerobic capacity and functional strength, ideal whether you’re returning from a break or stepping up to the Half Distance Triathlon for the first time. You’ll develop the endurance needed to power through that cool 57°F swim without stress.

✅ Improve Efficiency on Bike and Run
Targeted brick workouts and VO2 max intervals sharpen your cycling and running performance, enabling you to handle the flat, fast 56-mile bike course and the steady, supporter-friendly run with less effort and greater speed.

✅ Train Smart with Data-Driven Workouts
Heart rate and power-based sessions, fully compatible with Garmin and other platforms, help you track progress and adjust intensity—essential tools for managing training load as you age.

✅ Flexible, Time-Sensitive Training
Starting at 7.5 hours a week and gradually building to 12 hours, this plan fits into busy lifestyles, ensuring you get quality workouts without burnout or time overload.

By following this Master-focused Half Distance Triathlon training plan, you’ll build strength, speed, and resilience to race confidently and enjoy every moment on the course.
