Plan Description
The Middle Distance Triathlon Gunsan Korea course demands a well-rounded and strategic approach to training, and this 36-week beginner training plan is expertly crafted to prepare you for every challenge you’ll face on race day.
🏊♂️ Swim Preparation for the Middle Distance Triathlon
Starting with a 1.9 km, 2-lap swim in the calm, clear Yellow Sea waters, this plan’s initial 12-week foundational phase focuses on building your swim endurance and technique. Instructional video drills help you master efficient strokes and breathing to keep you strong and confident throughout the swim. This ensures you can navigate the marked buoys smoothly while conserving energy for the bike and run.
🚴♀️ Bike Readiness for the Middle Distance Triathlon
The 90 km bike leg features four laps along the Saemangeum seawall — flat, fast, and traffic-free, but potentially windy near the seawall. The training plan’s progressive build-up in volume and intensity, including structured RPE/Heart Rate sessions and tempo rides, simulates these race conditions. Brick workouts combine biking and running, helping you adapt to the physical transition from cycling to running while maintaining speed and efficiency.
🏃♂️ Run Conditioning for the Middle Distance Triathlon
The 21.1 km, 3-lap run course is flat and scenic, perfect for fast pacing. The plan’s run/jog sessions and strength training build muscular endurance and help maintain optimal running form. Regular hydration and pacing strategies included in the program prepare you to manage aid stations and sustain energy throughout the half marathon.
