Plan Description

Train Smarter for the Sir Bani Yas Island Half Distance Triathlon in Abu Dhabi

If you're targeting the Half Distance Triathlon on Sir Bani Yas Island, this 44-week Intermediate Training Plan is engineered to get you race-day ready—strong, confident, and fast. Here's how this plan aligns perfectly with the unique course challenges you'll face in Abu Dhabi:

🏊‍♂️ Prepare for a Fast, Clear-Water Swim
The calm, protected waters on the southeast side of the island offer ideal conditions—but that doesn’t mean you can skip the prep. Our plan includes open water swim simulations and drills that boost your confidence and sighting skills, helping you launch into the Arabian Gulf with purpose and pace.

🚴‍♀️ Conquer Climbs on a Fast Island Loop
The two-loop, 96KM bike course is both flat and rolling—with short climbs that reach 100m above sea level. You’ll train on power-based intervals and simulated climbing sessions to build strength and endurance. Expect a mix of low-cadence hill work, VO2 intervals, and long tempo rides to mimic the rhythm of the Sir Bani Yas terrain—all with zero traffic stress, just like race day.

🏃 Crush the Coastal Run with Precision
The flat 21.1KM run is looped through the vibrant race village. With crowd energy and frequent aid stations, pacing is critical. Your plan features progressive brick workouts, threshold-paced long runs, and hydration strategy sessions so you can thrive in the heat and deliver a strong finish.

✨ Why Athletes Love This Plan
✅ Built-in 12-week base phase—no prior fitness required
✅ 32-week race-specific training with heart rate & power zones
✅ Strategic swim, bike, run workouts including brick sessions
✅ Open water swim prep + strength training with video guidance
✅ Anaerobic threshold + VO2 interval training to boost speed
✅ Personalized email support from expert coaches
