Plan Description

Our 24-week Long Distance Triathlon training plan is specifically designed to prepare serious athletes for the ultimate test at Long Distance Triathlon Australia. From the 3.8 km swim in Lake Burley Griffin’s central basin to the 180 km bike course along Majura Parkway and the iconic 42 km run finishing in front of Old Parliament House, every aspect of this plan ensures you arrive race-day ready.

This High Performance Amateur plan builds on your established aerobic base, gradually increasing training volume from 10.5 hours in week one to a peak of 18 hours per week, perfectly mirroring the endurance and intensity demands of the Long Distance Triathlon.

Key benefits include:

✅ Endurance Base Mile Training – prepare your muscles and cardiovascular system for the extended swim, bike, and run distances.
✅ Aerobic Bike Training & Hill Climbing Intervals – tackle Majura Parkway’s high-speed flats and Tuggeranong Parkway climbs with confidence.
✅ VO2 Max & Anaerobic Threshold Workouts – develop the speed and stamina necessary for a fast, efficient 4-lap 10.5 km run.
✅ ATP-PC Power Sessions – maximize sprinting and explosive power, essential for transitions and surges.
✅ Open Water Swim Practice & Technique Drills – refine your stroke for Lake Burley Griffin conditions.
✅ Brick Sessions & Structured Interval Training – seamlessly combine bike-to-run transitions for race-day efficiency.
✅ Strength Training & Video Instruction* – build the muscular resilience needed for a smooth, injury-free Long Distance Triathlon.
✅ AI Gait Analysis & Personalized Feedback – optimize running form to prevent fatigue over multiple run laps.

Every element of this Long Distance Triathlon training plan is designed to simulate the unique course challenges: the long, fast bike stretches, repeated climbing, and the spectator-friendly run loops. With precise, structured workouts and personalized email coach support, you’ll gain the endurance, speed, and mental fortitude to tackle Long Distance Triathlon Australia with confidence.

Transform your training into race-day success—equip yourself with the ultimate Long Distance Triathlon plan and make every swim, bike, and run session count.
