Plan Description

Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau – Train to Conquer Germany’s Premier Race

Are you ready to take on one of Germany’s most scenic and challenging races? The Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau offers a world-class experience with its pristine 1.9 km swim in the Hardtsee, a hilly 90 km bike ride through the “land of 1000 hills,” and a fast, flat 21.1 km run through the redesigned Kurpark in Bad Schönborn. To meet the demands of this course—and thrive—you need a proven, structured training approach built specifically for intermediate athletes like you.

🔥 Enter the 36-Week Half Distance Triathlon Intermediate Plan—your roadmap to racing strong, confident, and fast at Kraichgau.

💥 You’ll begin with a 12-week base-building phase that develops your aerobic engine, establishes routine, and integrates strength training from day one. This crucial phase lays the groundwork for consistent progress, injury resistance, and improved technique across all three disciplines.

🏊‍♂️🚴‍♀️🏃 From week 13, the 24-week race-specific phase gradually increases training volume from 7 to 12.5 hours per week. You'll develop race-ready endurance, sharpen your speed with VO2 max intervals, and practice race simulations through structured brick workouts—essential for tackling Kraichgau’s demanding terrain.

🏋️‍♂️ Strength training and mobility routines remain a priority throughout, helping you climb stronger and run smoother off the bike. Kraichgau’s bike course demands power and pacing—this plan delivers both.

🎯 You’ll benefit from clear, coach-designed workouts, including:

- Guided swim drills to build efficiency in Hardtsee-like conditions

- Heart rate and power-based bike/run intervals designed for climbing and sustained efforts

- Run workouts focused on pacing and threshold control for the fast, three-lap course

- Weekly video support and a strategy-first approach to racing success

This isn’t just a plan. It’s a performance system designed for ambitious age-groupers targeting personal bests and strong finishes.

If you're serious about racing your best Half Distance Triathlon in Kraichgau—this is the plan for you.

✅ Start training with purpose. Build strength, boost endurance, and race your best.
