Plan Description
This 44-week Competitive Masters Training Plan is purpose-built to prepare experienced athletes (especially over 40) for the specific challenges of the Leeds course.
Here’s how this plan aligns with each segment of the Leeds Full Distance Triathlon:
🏊 Swim – 3.8 km (2 laps in Waterloo Lake)
The training includes video-guided swim drills to sharpen open water technique, bilateral breathing, and pacing. Long aerobic swims mimic race conditions with minimal rest—just like Leeds, where you stay in the water for both laps.
🚴 Bike – 180 km (~2,574 m climbing)
You’ll progressively tackle longer rides with structured intervals that simulate the rolling terrain and key climbs like Black Hill Road. Mid- to peak-phase workouts build sustained power and climbing strength while minimizing injury risk through smart progression.
🏃 Run – 42.2 km (4 laps, ~455 m climbing)
Each run phase includes interval sessions, tempo efforts, and brick workouts to prepare you for the repetitive elevation changes and multi-lap format through Roundhay Park and Millennium Square. Run durability and pacing strategies are central to this phase.
✅ 12-Week Base Phase – Build aerobic capacity, functional strength, and clean technique. Weekly training grows from 4 to 8 hours, using a 3:1 loading cycle to prevent burnout.
✅ 32-Week Full Distance Triathlon Phase – Peak training begins at 7 hours per week, reaching 15 at the height. Includes power, heart rate, and RPE-based workouts tailored for triathletes using Garmin and other smart devices.
💪 Key Features:
✔️ Smart Device-compatible structured sessions – Direct-to-device ease
✔️ Strength training with expert video instruction – Injury prevention for Masters athletes
✔️ Open water swim prep – Technique and pacing focus
✔️ Run durability & fueling strategies – Designed for multi-lap marathon success
🎯 This is more than a plan—it’s a complete system designed to help you train smarter, avoid injury, and arrive confident on race day in Leeds.
