Plan Description
Prepare to crush the Half Distance Triathlon Aix-en-Provence with a training plan engineered to elevate your performance across one of the most picturesque and technically demanding races in Europe.
🏊 SWIM: The race begins with a 1.9 km (1.2 mile) swim in the crystal-clear waters of Lake Peyrolles, located just 20 km from Aix-en-Provence. With average water temperatures of 64°F (18°C) and seamless shuttle service for check-in and race day, you'll enter the water focused and ready.
🚴 BIKE: Tackle the 90 km (56 mile) bike course featuring 1077 meters of climbing, through a dynamic mix of flat terrain and challenging hills. Ride past lavender fields and the dramatic slopes of Mountain Sainte-Victoire, all while navigating technical curves that demand strength, control, and endurance.
🏃 RUN: Finish strong with a 21.1 km (13.1 mile) three-loop run starting in central Aix-en-Provence and winding through Parc de la Torse, before culminating at the iconic La Rotonde fountain, cheered on by thousands of spectators.
