IRONMAN 70.3 Edinburgh Training Plan - Improve
About this plan
Targeting Ironman 70.3 Edinburgh? This is the plan for it. 17 weeks, a solid 11 hours a week, every one of them built around middle-distance triathlon rather than adapted from a template.
Every target is set as a percentage of your own FTP and threshold pace, so it fits you and not some average athlete. The weeks climb and then ease in three-week blocks, and across them the swim, the bike, the run and the transitions that join them are trained in balance.
Follow it properly and the aim is clear: take a real chunk out of your previous time at Ironman 70.3 Edinburgh.
