A sample week

Ironman 70.3 plan

70.3 is a long day made of ordinary weeks. The sample puts the long ride in the middle, keeps the running easy, and uses one brick so the run off the bike is familiar.

  1. Monday

    Steady swim

    Continuous swimming with a few lengths of drills. Nothing raced.

    50 min
  2. Tuesday

    Midweek ride

    Endurance pace, including a few minutes at the effort you expect to hold on race day.

    90 min
  3. Wednesday

    Easy run

    Short and easy. The long ride needs you fresh, not brave.

    40 min
  4. Thursday

    Rest

    Eat, sleep, leave the bike alone.

    —
  5. Friday

    Long ride

    The week's anchor. Mostly steady, with the last part at 70.3 effort.

    180 min
  6. Saturday

    Brick run

    Run soon after a short spin. The legs feel heavy on purpose.

    35 min
  7. Sunday

    Easy swim or rest

    A short swim if you want it. Skip it if the long ride is still in your legs.

    30 min
