Plan Description

Introducing the 36-Week Advanced Training Blueprint designed specifically for athletes racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain. This comprehensive program builds a rock-solid 12-week foundation before guiding you through a 24-week progression tailored to the unique swim, bike, and run challenges of this iconic course.

The single-loop 1.9 km swim in the pristine waters of Ulibarri-Gamboa Lake requires both efficiency and endurance. Our plan develops swim technique, pacing skills, and open-water confidence so you can exit the water strong and ready for the bike.

On the one-loop 90 km bike through Álava’s scenic countryside and sections of the Camino de Santiago, athletes face 500m of elevation. This program integrates climbing intervals, aerobic endurance sessions, and power-based rides that mirror the rolling terrain, ensuring you arrive at T2 primed for speed.

The two-loop 21.1 km run through downtown Vitoria-Gasteiz is flat and fast, yet requires durability to maintain pace while thousands of passionate spectators line the course. Structured long runs, threshold training, and pacing strategy sessions prepare you to finish strong in front of Plaza España’s historic finish line.

✅ Built around a proven 3:1 cycle of training and recovery
✅ Weekly progression from 9.5 to 14.5 hours for peak readiness
✅ Functional strength, endurance, and speed integrated into every phase
✅ Swim, bike, and run sessions tailored to the Vitoria-Gasteiz course profile
✅ Includes VO2 max, anaerobic threshold, and power sprint training for all-around performance

This Half Distance Triathlon training plan is designed for dedicated athletes who want to race confidently and achieve their best in Spain’s Basque Country. With personalized email coach support included, you’ll gain both structure and guidance every step of the way.
