Intermediate Half Distance Training Plan. 24 wks. (Power for Bike, Pace for Swim, HR for Run)
Please note this plan is best for athlete's who use a power meter on their bike and want to use heart rate for their run. This plan starts out with a 4-5 hour training week and builds to an 11 hour training week. The first 4 weeks gently introduces some easy run and rides focused on pick-ups to wake up your aerobic system before getting rolling into the final 20 weeks where threshold will be critical.
This 24 week plan is ideal for athletes looking to advance their overall fitness level from a beginner to a competitor over the 70.3 distance.
After the initial month's training this plan offers a complete rest day every 2 weeks as well as ample opportunity to run off the bike. Be prepared to challenge yourself with this plan and test your fitness by racing a sprint and olympic triathlon in your build up.
