Plan Description
With its warm Mediterranean swim, fast coastal bike course, and flat, energetic marathon run, this race demands a well-structured, endurance-focused approach — and that’s exactly what our six-month Full Distance Triathlon training for beginners plan delivers.
Prerequisite Training Required: Before starting, you should have a basic fitness foundation. Ensure you can swim 2.5 kilometers, cycle at least 45 miles, and run continuously for 60 minutes.
✅ Build Confidence for the Mediterranean Swim
Start and finish at iconic Calella Beach with confidence. This plan integrates technique-focused swim drills, endurance sets, and VO₂ interval sessions to ensure you’re efficient and relaxed in open water.
✅ Master the Coastal Bike Course
The fast and scenic 180.2 km ride to Badalona requires sustained power and pacing. Our bike sessions use RPE and heart rate zones to help you build muscular endurance and dial in your race-day rhythm — especially critical with Calella’s consistent elevation profile and potential wind exposure.
✅ Crush the Flat Marathon Run
Calella’s 3-lap run course is built for speed — and so is your training. With structured brick workouts, long runs, and form-focused drills (including AI-generated run gait video analysis), you'll build the resilience needed to maintain pace when it matters most.
🔥 Plan Highlights Include:
✔️ Weekly 3:1 progressive load/recovery structure to boost adaptation and prevent injury
✔️ Starting at just 7.5 hrs/week, building gradually to 14 hrs/week — manageable and effective
✔️ Technique-driven swim drills with detailed video instruction
✔️ Strength workouts made for triathletes — no gym? No problem. All sessions include at-home options
✔️ Personalized support from a coach via email — because guidance makes the difference
🌟 Bonus: This Full Distance Triathlon training plan is designed specifically for beginners — no guesswork, just proven structure to get you across the finish line strong and confident.
