Plan Description
Train to Conquer the Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau – With the 36-Week Advanced Training Plan Built for You
Get ready to take on the Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau—Germany’s crown jewel of endurance racing. From the pristine 1.9 km swim in the crystal-clear waters of Hardtsee to the rolling 90 km ride through the scenic "land of 1000 hills," and a flat, fast 21.1 km run through vibrant Bad Schönborn, this race demands more than just general fitness—it demands purpose-driven preparation.
That’s where this 36-Week Advanced Training Plan comes in.
Designed specifically for ambitious amateur triathletes, this plan helps you train with precision for Kraichgau’s unique terrain and race-day conditions. You’ll start with a focused 12-week strength and endurance foundation, followed by a 24-week build phase engineered to peak your performance on race day.
We follow a proven 3-weeks-on, 1-week-recovery rhythm—starting at 9.5 hours per week and gradually progressing to 14.5 hours at peak. Your body will adapt and grow stronger, with smart recovery blocks to prevent burnout.
Your training includes:
✅ Technique-focused swim sessions for clean, efficient pacing in Hardtsee’s calm waters
✅ Hill-specific bike training with climbing intervals and power sprints—perfect for Kraichgau’s 1000+ meters of elevation gain
✅ Targeted run work to sharpen your anaerobic threshold and prepare for a strong, steady finish through the redesigned Kurpark
🔥 Performance-focused blocks:
💥 Endurance Aerobic Mile Training
💥 VO2 Max & Threshold Intervals
💥 Climbing Acceleration Intervals
💥 ATP-PC Power Sprint Work
This isn’t just another plan—it’s a roadmap to racing Kraichgau with strength, speed, and confidence.
If you're serious about making the most of your Half Distance Triathlon in Kraichgau, this is the plan built for your goals.
