This 36-week triathlon training plan is your roadmap to crossing the finish line strong, confident, and race-ready. From the warm Mediterranean swim to the high-speed coastal bike and the fast, flat marathon—this plan is engineered to prepare you for every element of this iconic course.

Here’s how the plan sets you up for race-day success:

✅ Swim-Ready Confidence
Build open-water swim skills with progressive drills and technique-focused workouts. You'll feel confident navigating the 3.8 km loop in Calella’s crystal-clear waters—no matter your experience level.

🚴‍♂️ Bike Power Meets Endurance
With structured Heart Rate and Power-based intervals, you'll gain the stamina and strength needed to thrive on the 180.2 km fast, coastal bike course from Calella to Badalona—designed to help you push speed without burning out.

🏃‍♂️ Run Strong to the Finish
Through tempo runs, long bricks, and threshold sessions, you'll be fully prepared to tackle the 42.2 km marathon. The plan mimics Calella’s flat, spectator-lined course so you can hold pace through all three laps and finish with power.

💥 36 Weeks, Strategically Structured
Start with a 12-week endurance-building base phase, followed by 24 weeks of race-specific training. The plan uses a proven 3:1 cycle—three weeks of focused build, one week of recovery—to ensure long-term gains without burnout.

💪 Strength to Go the Distance
Integrated strength sessions build durability and injury resistance—critical for the demands of a Full Distance Triathlon. Early season training balances strength with swim technique and V02 max development.

🎯 Smart Volume Progression
Training begins at 7 hours/week and gradually builds to ~16 hours/week. Every session has a purpose—from open-water swim prep to progressive bricks and bike-run combo workouts that simulate race day effort.

📹 Coaching Support + Guided Workouts
