Plan Description

The 44-Week Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is expertly crafted for senior athletes preparing for the stunning yet fast course in La Quinta. With its calm 1.9km lake swim, flat 56-mile bike through La Quinta and Thermal Raceway, and a spectator-friendly 13.1-mile run through the scenic Silver Rock Golf Resort, this race rewards preparation, consistency, and intelligent pacing—exactly what this plan delivers.

🚴 Brick Workouts for Real Race Prep: Race-specific bricks simulate the transition from bike to run on flat terrain, sharpening pacing and mental toughness.
💪 Built for Bone Health & Strength: Resistance training maintains muscle mass and mobility—critical for strong performance and injury prevention.
📈 Smart Progression for Senior Athletes: Structured 2:1 work-to-recovery weeks optimize adaptation without overtraining, especially important for athletes 60+.
