Plan Description
Your First Full Distance Triathlon Starts Here – Cozumel, Mexico
Training for your first Full Distance Triathlon can feel overwhelming—especially when you're racing in a destination as stunning and challenging as Cozumel. That’s why our 36-week beginner triathlon training plan is built specifically for first-time athletes like you—step by step, from nervous beginner to confident finisher.
🌊 Conquer the Swim with Confidence
Cozumel’s 2.4-mile open-water swim features warm 79°F (26°C) water and excellent visibility—but ocean currents and nerves can be tough. Our first 12 weeks focus on swim confidence: clear video tutorials, technique drills, and open-water preparation to help you feel calm and capable when you hit the water on race day.
🚴 Build Strength for the Flat, Fast Bike Course
Cozumel’s 112-mile bike course loops around the island on flat terrain with beautiful ocean views—but it’s exposed to wind and sun. You’ll gradually build from just 4.5 hours in week one to 14.5 hours at your peak, focusing on endurance rides, pacing, and smart fueling strategies. We guide you every step of the way so you never feel lost or overtrained.
🏃 Prepare to Run Strong in the Heat
The 26.2-mile run through Cozumel’s vibrant neighborhoods and along the waterfront is flat but demanding in the heat. We include walk-run strategies, hydration tips, and mental tools to help you stay strong, steady, and smiling through the finish line.
✅ Built for first-time Full Distance Triathletes
✅ Structured, progressive training with clear weekly goals
✅ Swim drills and videos to improve technique and confidence
✅ Beginner-friendly brick sessions to prep for race-day flow
✅ Smart pacing, nutrition, and hydration guidance
✅ 💬 Personalized email coach support every step of the way
You don’t need to be an elite athlete to finish a Full Distance Triathlon—you just need the right plan.
👉 Start your Cozumel triathlon journey today—with expert guidance designed just for beginners. Your finish line awaits.
