This 20-week plan is designed for athletes targeting a strong, well-executed 70.3 performance, with an emphasis on smart progression, durability, and race-day execution. Before starting this plan you should ideally be riding ~1h for your long ride and be running ~60mins+ on your long runs
The plan balances swim, bike, run, and strength to build sustainable fitness without excessive fatigue. Bike and run sessions focus on developing aerobic capacity, race-specific strength, and the ability to hold steady output under fatigue, a key limiter for most half-iron athletes.
You’ll see:
3 Per week Structured bike workouts targeting aerobic efficiency, tempo, and race-pace control
3 Per Week Run sessions that progress from aerobic durability to half-marathon–specific work off the bike
2 Per week periodized strength
Purposeful brick workouts close to the race to dial in pacing and fueling
2 per week Swim sessions focused on efficiency, repeatability, and open-water readiness
Built-in recovery and guidance to support consistency and injury prevention
This plan is best suited for athletes who already have a solid endurance base and can train 6–10 hours per week. The goal is to arrive on the start line fit, fresh, confident, and ready to execute.
My mission is to help athletes reach their potential through intelligent, sustainable training rooted in consistency, sound decision-making, and long-term development.
I coach athletes to think, not just follow. To understand effort, manage stress, fuel their work, and make good choices when it matters most. Performance is built by stacking consistent weeks, respecting the process, and adapting training to the athletes life demands.
