Plan Description
Racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Florida means preparing for warm lake waters, fast open roads, and a flat but humid half marathon. Our 24-week Senior Triathlete 60+ Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is specifically designed to help you succeed in exactly these conditions—by focusing on endurance, resilience, and age-appropriate strength. If you've got a solid base of training we got the plan!
🏊 Swim Ready for Lake Eva
The calm, single-loop freshwater swim in Lake Eva is ideal for maintaining steady pace and control. Our plan includes structured aerobic swim sets and video-based technique drills to enhance stroke efficiency—especially helpful for senior athletes looking to conserve energy and swim relaxed.
🚴 Bike Strong Through Polk County
Florida’s bike course offers a mostly flat ride with light rolling terrain—perfect for holding consistent wattage. With heart rate and power-based workouts, this plan teaches you how to ride steady in the heat while managing effort and hydration. 💧
🏃 Run Confidently in the Heat
The fast and flat 13.1-mile run through Lake Eva Park requires pacing discipline and heat management. Our training builds your aerobic engine through low-impact mileage while incorporating VO₂ max intervals later in the plan to maintain top-end speed and efficiency.
