BEGINNER TRAINING PLAN (Please note – this is not a COUCH to HALF IRONMAN training program):
Prior to starting this program participants should be able to swim 1000 yards, bike continuously for 60 minutes, and run continuously for 30 minutes. We highly recommend that you have completed an Olympic Distance triathlon prior to registration of this program. Training will consist of approximately 6-7 sessions per week (2 swims, 2-3 bike sessions, 2 running sessions, plus one recovery day per week). The total training volume and the volume of specific workouts will increase over the course of the program and your success is dependent on completion of the trainings.
