The Middle Distance Triathlon in Xiamen, China offers a fast, flat, and scenic course that’s perfect for personal bests. Our 44-week Intermediate Training Plan is meticulously designed to prepare you for the warm, tide-adjusted swim in Tong’an Bay, the gentle gradient-free 90km coastal bike route, and the flat 21.1km run along a fully closed, traffic-free track. Every session is purpose-built to help you perform at your peak when it matters most.
✅ Progressive Build for Peak Race Day Fitness – Begin with a 12-week base phase to develop aerobic capacity before transitioning into a 32-week specific Middle Distance Triathlon phase. Weekly training gradually grows from 9 to 14 hours, matching the endurance needs of Xiamen’s course profile.
🏊 Swim Preparedness for Tong’an Bay – Includes open-water swim drills, sighting practice, and pacing strategies to handle the course’s counter-clockwise layout and tidal conditions.
🚴 Bike Power for a Fast, Flat Coastal Route – Structured power-based cycling sessions and tempo intervals simulate the sustained effort required for Xiamen’s gradient-free 90km track, boosting speed and endurance without overexertion.
🏃 Run Efficiency for the Final 21.1km – Flat-terrain run workouts and progressive brick sessions train your legs to stay strong and fast off the bike, perfectly mirroring race conditions.
💪 Complete Athlete Development – Strength training, technique refinement, VO₂ max intervals, and anaerobic threshold sessions ensure all-around performance improvement.
