Training plans/Half Aquabike
Self-guided race preparation
Half Aquabike
Half Aquabike removes the run leg, so the plan should not read like a triathlon schedule with the final discipline deleted. This 22-week family is built around the 1.9km swim and 90km bike that actually decide the day, with no run programme competing for space.
Who this plan is for
For half-distance swim-bike racing
Choose Half Aquabike when the goal is the 1.9km swim and 90km bike format itself. The catalogue has Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced collections, keeping the race distance constant while letting experience determine where the progression starts.
The current TrainingPeaks SKUs include bike heart-rate and bike-power options, with swim guidance expressed through RPE and pace. All three levels use a 22-week standard build, and there is no separate 15-week time-crunched collection in the current catalogue.
Training load
