Plan Description

Prepare to dominate the Long Distance Triathlon in Canberra with our 44-week High Performance Amateur Training Plan — designed specifically for athletes aiming to master every element of this iconic course.

🔥 12-Week Foundation Phase: Build endurance and strength with a structured six-to-ten-hour weekly program, culminating in a Brick endurance test to prepare you for the 3.8 km swim in Lake Burley Griffin, the fast 180 km bike along Majura Parkway, and the spectator-friendly 42 km run through Canberra’s iconic landmarks.

📆 32-Week Long Distance Triathlon Specialized Training: Follow a 3/1 cycle — three weeks of focused training with one recovery week — tailored to sharpen your pacing, nutrition strategy, and race-day mindset. Optional “B” and “C” races let you practice without overreaching, perfect for Master 40+ athletes seeking sustainable progression.

⏰ Progressive Training Regimen: Weekly hours start around ten and peak at eighteen, building your aerobic base, climbing power, and speed endurance. A four-week taper ensures you arrive at the start line fully recovered and race-ready.

🏊‍♀️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♀️ Holistic Performance Approach: Refine swimming technique for open water, boost cycling power for high-speed flats and rolling climbs, and strengthen run endurance for the fast, flat 10.5 km laps. Training incorporates VO2 max, anaerobic threshold, sprint power, and climbing acceleration sessions — everything needed to tackle this demanding Long Distance Triathlon.

✅ Key Benefits:
