The Competitive Masters 40+ Six-Month Long Distance Triathlon Training Plan is expertly designed for athletes aiming to excel at the Jacksonville course—a race defined by speed, precision, and endurance. From the downriver swim in the St. Johns River to the flat, fast bike leg through the heart of the city and the energetic two-loop marathon across its boroughs, this plan systematically prepares you to perform your best across every mile.

Built for experienced triathletes ready to advance from shorter distances or refine their full-distance strategy, this 24-week program emphasizes aerobic depth, muscular durability, and race-specific execution tailored to the demands of a Long Distance Triathlon.

✅ Swim-Specific Endurance & Technique
Progressive open-water sessions mirror the St. Johns River’s gentle current, helping athletes perfect pacing, sighting, and efficiency in variable conditions. Video-guided drills refine stroke economy—vital for a strong start in Jacksonville’s iconic waterway.

✅ Power-Based Bike Training for Flat, Fast Courses
With power-targeted sessions and heart-rate zones synced directly to Garmin, you’ll develop sustained output ideal for Jacksonville’s flat 112-mile bike leg. Extended tempo intervals build resilience for aerodynamic positioning and steady power delivery through long city stretches.

✅ Run Strength for Multi-Loop Urban Courses
Run workouts integrate pace-by-effort and cadence focus, conditioning athletes for the rhythmic demands of Jacksonville’s scenic 26.2-mile two-loop run. Brick sessions simulate real race fatigue so you transition from bike to run fluidly and confidently.

✅ Structured 3:1 Load-Recovery Framework
Every three weeks of progressive overload is balanced by one week of active recovery to prevent burnout, ensuring sustainable performance gains for master athletes.

✅ Comprehensive Strength & Mobility Training
Functional strength sessions enhance posture, joint stability, and injury prevention—key for mastering the repetitive motion of long-distance racing.
