Plan Description
Designed specifically for athletes racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Alghero, Italy, this 24-week structured program prepares you for every challenge of this stunning Mediterranean course—from the calm emerald waters of San Giovanni Beach to the rolling coastal roads of Porto Conte and the seaside run through Alghero’s historic streets. Every workout, recovery week, and data-driven session is optimized to help you perform at your absolute best on race day.
🌊 Open-Water Swim Confidence
You’ll master pace control and efficiency with technique-focused drills and progressive endurance swims that mimic the calm yet variable conditions of Alghero Bay. The plan integrates open-water sessions to prepare you for the slightly cool 18ºC spring temperatures and the soft-sand beach starts unique to San Giovanni.
🚴♂️ Climb-Ready Cycling Power
Expect structured hill repeats, threshold efforts, and long aerobic rides that mirror the 90 km loop with 850 m of elevation gain around Porto Conte. Power-based intervals and Best Bike Split integration help you sustain wattage on rolling terrain while building confidence for the fast coastal stretches leading back to the harbor.
🏃♀️ Endurance Meets Rhythm on the Run
With three progressive run loops each week, this plan develops the stamina and pacing control needed for Alghero’s seaside run course. Tempo sessions and brick workouts simulate running off the bike through old-town streets and along the scenic seafront wall.
📈 Performance-Driven Structure
✅ 3:1 training rhythm—three focused weeks, one active recovery week
✅ Heart-rate and power-based workouts that sync seamlessly with Garmin devices
✅ Strength and mobility sessions targeting triathlon-specific stability and power
