Plan Description
If you're dreaming of crossing the finish line of a Full Distance Triathlon—but know you need time, support, and a clear plan—this 44-week training journey is built just for you. With nearly a full year to prepare, this plan helps you grow in strength, confidence, and endurance—one week at a time.
The Valdivia course is stunning:
🏞 A calm, point-to-point 3.8km swim in the crystal-clear Calle-Calle River (wetsuit-legal!)
🚴♂️ A fast 180km bike through lush countryside with just enough hills to challenge and inspire
🏃♂️ A flat, scenic 42.1km run across Valdivia’s iconic bridges, ending riverside in the heart of the city
Here’s how this plan prepares you for all of it—with time, guidance, and a no-rush mindset:
✅ A 12-week base phase to build foundational strength, aerobic conditioning, and swim technique
✅ Gradual progression from 7.5 hrs/week in Week 13 to 14 hrs/week by Week 39—designed for busy athletes
✅ Optional “B” and “C” races to test pacing, fueling, and mindset without burnout
✅ Endurance-focused swim workouts tailored to calm, cool water conditions
✅ Bike and run sessions based on Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) and heart rate—no guesswork
✅ VO2 max and threshold intervals added gently to build power and stamina
✅ Brick workouts to simulate race-day effort and boost your confidence
💪 Plus:
🎥 Video demos of swim drills
🧠 Strength sessions designed for beginners
📩 Personalized email coach support for steady encouragement and expert answers
You don’t need to be fast—you just need the right roadmap. This Full Distance Triathlon training plan respects where you’re starting and gives you the space and structure to grow stronger every single week.
👉 Take the first step today—your finish line in Valdivia is waiting.
