Plan Description
The Middle Distance Triathlon Montréal course is fast, flat, and uniquely thrilling — and this 36-week Intermediate Training Plan is built to prepare you for every detail of race day. From the calm waters of the Olympic Basin to the precision of 21 laps on the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, and finally, the flat half-marathon run past historic Olympic landmarks, you’ll be ready to perform at your peak.
✅ Swim-Specific Preparation – Develop endurance and technique for the 1.9 km swim in calm, clear waters. Early-phase sessions focus on efficiency, sighting skills, and open-water familiarity, ensuring you hit the Olympic Basin ready to pace and excel.
✅ Bike Power & Endurance – The 90 km ride on Montréal’s Formula 1 track demands consistent pacing, legal drafting awareness (12m spacing, 25s pass), and sustained speed. Structured intervals, tempo rides, and brick workouts replicate the rhythm of multiple laps and spectator-fueled adrenaline.
✅ Run Efficiency & Strength – A 21.1 km flat course means no hiding from pace discipline. You’ll train with progressive long runs, threshold intervals, and pacing drills so you can maintain strong form and speed through all 4½ laps to the finish.
✅ Peak Performance Periodization – Built around a 12-week base phase and 24-week race-specific phase, with a proven 3:1 load-to-recovery cycle to optimize gains without burnout.
✅ Fully Integrated Strength & Conditioning – Targeted functional strength keeps you powerful and injury-resistant across all three disciplines.
✅ Personalized Email Coach Support – Get expert guidance when you need it most.
Designed for competitive intermediate athletes stepping up from Olympic distance or returning to the sport after a training break, this plan also lays a strong foundation for future Full Distance Triathlon goals.
Your race day in Montréal deserves more than just showing up — it deserves preparation that mirrors the course itself. This plan will give you the confidence, pacing strategy, and physical readiness to perform at your best.
🏅 Start your Middle Distance Triathlon journey today and train with purpose, precision, and expert support — so when you cross that finish line, you know you’ve delivered your best performance yet.
