Half Distance Triathlon Alghero Italy – Training Plan Overview for Masters Athletes 40+

This dedicated Half Distance Triathlon training plan prepares you for the stunning and challenging Alghero course by developing endurance, open-water confidence, sustained climbing strength, and late-race resilience. With structured progression, focused intensity work, and thoughtful recovery, you will arrive ready to perform across San Giovanni’s calm emerald bay, the rolling Mediterranean coastline, and the historic seafront run through Alghero’s charming old town.

The program mirrors the specific course structure. Calm-water swim sets improve sighting and rhythm for the sheltered 1.9 km bay loop. Power-focused cycling sessions, threshold climbs, and strength endurance rides build the stamina and control required to manage the 90 km route’s 850 m of elevation around Porto Conte’s protected natural park and coastal roads. Progressive brick sessions and tempo-based run work strengthen your ability to maintain pace across three coastal loops connecting the harbor and the historic waterfront, even as fatigue rises late in the race.

Designed for experienced triathletes stepping confidently into a Half Distance Triathlon, this 24-week plan supports sustainable growth with a structured 3:1 training rhythm, peaking at approximately 12.5 hours per week—ideal for competitive Masters athletes seeking purposeful progression and longevity in the sport.
