Plan Description
Designed for athletes preparing for the Long Distance Triathlon in Jacksonville, Florida, this program mirrors the city’s fast, flat, and scenic course—equipping you to thrive in every segment. The plan strategically builds the strength, endurance, and precision required for the 2.4-mile downriver swim, the 112-mile aerodynamic bike leg, and the 26.2-mile urban marathon along the St. Johns River.
🔥 Prerequisite Fitness Required: This program is built for motivated athletes who already have a solid base. From Week 1, you’ll tap into VO₂ intervals and structured threshold work designed to sharpen speed and stamina for sustained race-day performance.

Sessions target endurance development, anaerobic threshold power, open-water adaptation, and progressive brick integration to simulate Jacksonville’s multi-discipline demands.
