Plan Description
This 44-week Middle Distance Triathlon Taiwan training plan is thoughtfully crafted to meet the unique needs of senior athletes aged 60 and over, preparing you thoroughly for the challenges of the Half Distance Triathlon course. The race’s 1.9 km swim in the calm, clear waters of Flowing Lake demands confidence and efficiency in the water—this plan builds your swimming endurance and technique gradually, helping you feel secure and strong from the very first stroke.
The 90 km bike leg along the Pacific Coastal Highway features rolling terrain and potential coastal winds. This plan focuses on developing your aerobic endurance and muscular strength through safe, manageable workouts tailored to older athletes. Brick sessions simulate race conditions to help you build cycling power and smooth transitions without overtaxing your body.
Running the 21.1 km half-marathon on paved roads and shaded paths requires sustainable pacing and joint-friendly training. This plan includes low-impact endurance runs, interval training for speed, and recovery phases designed to protect your joints and maintain mobility, so you can complete the run feeling strong and resilient.

✅ A gentle 12-week base phase to build aerobic fitness safely and steadily
