This plan is intended for triathletes of all abilities, who can already comfortably swim for 30 minutes, bike for 60 minutes, and run for 35 minutes. It is designed to bridge the gap until the start of a formal training plan, or to maintain triathlon fitness during an extended race period.
INTENSITY TYPE : RUN POWER, BIKE HEART RATE
This plan presents the run workout intensity targets by Power, the bike by Heart Rate, and the swim by Pace, but other intensity type versions of this plan are also available.
