Plan Description
Gallipoli Middle Distance Triathlon: Be Race-Ready with This Masters-Focused Training Plan
The Gallipoli Middle Distance Triathlon features a historic and physically demanding course—perfect for athletes looking to challenge themselves across land and sea. With a 1.9 km bay swim, a hilly 90 km bike ride with nearly 900m of elevation gain, and a 3-lap coastal run along ANZAC Cove, this race demands endurance, strength, and smart pacing.
This 44-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is built specifically for athletes over 40 and meticulously prepares you for the Gallipoli course from the ground up. Whether you're new to triathlon or returning after a break, the plan meets you where you are—no prior long-course experience required.
✅ How This Plan Prepares You for Gallipoli:
🏊♂️ Open Water Swim Confidence: With stroke technique drills and endurance sets built into early base weeks, you’ll be ready for the 20°C (68°F) open-water bay swim off the Old Gendarmerie Pier.
🚴♀️ Bike Strength for Steep Climbs: Specific workouts targeting muscular endurance and sustained power output help you tackle challenging hills like Conkbayiri. VO₂ and tempo intervals mimic the terrain and intensity of the Gallipoli bike leg.
🏃♂️ Race-Specific Run Training: The 3-lap run at ANZAC Cove is all about pacing. This plan includes brick sessions and aerobic intervals to help you run strong off the bike while enjoying the historic scenery.
📈 Training Plan Highlights:
✅ Phased Development: 12 weeks of base training followed by 32 weeks of structured Half Distance Triathlon prep.
✅ Masters-Focused Strength: Weekly sessions to build durability and reduce injury risk.
✅ Smart Workouts: Every session includes guidance by RPE, heart rate, and power zones—fully compatible with Garmin and other training devices.
✅ Race Simulation: Brick workouts and scheduled “B” and “C” races help you dial in pacing and execution before your big day.
You’re not just following workouts—you’re training with purpose, backed by proven periodization and a coach’s eye on long-term success.
