Plan Description

If you’re eyeing the Full Distance Triathlon in Chattanooga, you already know it’s no ordinary race. A swift, current-assisted swim in the Tennessee River. A challenging 112-mile bike course with over 4,000 feet of climbing. And a marathon that winds through some of Chattanooga’s most iconic spots. It’s bold, beautiful—and it demands a serious training plan.

That’s where the 36-Week Full Distance Triathlon Chattanooga Training Plan comes in. Designed for intermediate athletes, this plan blends science, structure, and support—so you toe the start line confident, prepared, and race-day ready.

🏁 Plan Overview – Built for Chattanooga
✔ 12-Week Base Phase
Lay a rock-solid foundation. You’ll focus on aerobic development, mobility, and functional strength to reduce injury risk and increase resilience.

Swim drills emphasize body position, rotation, and bilateral breathing

Progressive strength sessions to prep for hillier terrain

Easy-to-follow recovery protocols and mobility routines

✔ 24-Week Build & Peak Phase
This is where performance takes off. Each 4-week cycle includes 3 weeks of progressive training followed by 1 week of active recovery.

Swim: Open-water focused workouts + sighting practice for river current navigation

Bike: long aerobic rides, and threshold intervals to prepare for US-27’s rolling profile

Run: Long runs, track workouts , brick sessions, and tempo efforts on terrain that mirrors Chattanooga’s riverside course

✔ Volume Progression
Week 13 begins with ~7 hours of training, peaking at 15–16 hours around Week 30. The schedule balances load with life, with optional sessions for flexibility.

🧠 Train with Intention – Every Session Has a Purpose
✔ All workouts include time-based or HR/power-based instructions
✔ Brick sessions improve bike-run transitions under fatigue
✔ Open water swim simulations reduce anxiety on race day
✔ Video-guided strength* workouts support durability and posture over long distances

🧑‍💻 Coach Support Included
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all template. You’ll receive personalized email support to help you adjust training for travel, illness, or personal commitments. You’ll never feel lost or alone in your journey.

🎯 Stop guessing and start training with purpose. This Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan is your blueprint to race Chattanooga with confidence, strength, and strategy.

👉 Get started today and unlock your path to the finish line at Ross’s Landing. Let’s build something great—one week at a time.
