Plan Description

Racing the Middle Distance Triathlon in Florianópolis demands more than just fitness—it requires a race-specific strategy that prepares you for calm ocean swimming, fast coastal cycling, and a flat, high-energy run. This 24-week Middle Distance Triathlon training plan is designed specifically for competitive Masters athletes over 40 who want to race with precision, strength, and confidence on this scenic yet challenging course.

From the 1.9 km sunrise swim at Jurerê Internacional Beach, where warm, calm waters encourage a fast pace, to the 90 km two-loop bike leg along the coastline with possible headwinds, and the 21.1 km three-loop run through a lively finish area, every session in this plan builds the specific endurance, strength, and pacing skills you’ll need to excel.

✅ Race-Specific Swim Prep – Open-water drills, sighting practice, and sustained aerobic sets to handle the fast, calm ocean start.
✅ Coastal Bike Power – Interval sessions and cadence work to sustain speed on flat terrain while managing wind exposure.
✅ Flat Course Run Conditioning – Progressive brick workouts to sharpen your run legs and sustain pace over three loops.
✅ Masters-Focused Strength Training – Mobility, durability, and injury prevention exercises tailored for athletes over 40.
✅ Data-Driven Sessions – Guided by RPE, heart rate, and power for precise, efficient training.
✅ Progressive Periodization – Structured 3:1 build/recovery cycles for optimal adaptation and reduced injury risk.

Athletes following this program will see a smooth progression from aerobic base building to race-specific intensity, ensuring you arrive on the start line in peak condition. With video swim drills, strength demos, and auto-synced workouts for your devices, you’ll have every tool needed to train effectively and stay motivated.
