IRONMAN® Training Plan - Beginner and Masters - 24 Weeks - Sunday Race - Structured

𝐏𝐔𝐑𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐄:
This is a 24 week Ironman® training program intended for the beginner and Masters age group triathlete.

𝐆𝐨𝐚𝐥:
The goal is to gradually build fitness while building confidence. Every week has a focus and every workout has a purpose. Bike and run workouts can be loaded onto your training device and swim workouts are timed based on your individual threshold speed.

With the busy athlete in mind, weekday workouts have light volume, which can be split between morning, afternoon, or evenings. Weekends include the long ride and run. I am happy to make modifications to workout days as requested.

By the end of the 24 week training cycle, you will have a high level of fitness required to successfully complete an Ironman® event.

𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐂𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐊𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐒
This plan incorporates TrainingPeaks’ structured workout feature with heart-rate based workouts on the bike and run, and pace-based workouts for swim. This feature allows for workouts to be exported to some device models, such as Garmin, which will guide you through the training sessions.

𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐬:
✔ Structured workouts (Plan can be used with and/or without this feature)

I want to wish you luck with your training and racing this season and thank you for using this training program
