Plan Description
Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau – Train Smart, Race Strong
Are you ready to conquer the legendary Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau? With its pristine 1.9 km swim in Hardtsee, a stunning 90 km bike ride through Germany’s "land of 1000 hills," and a fast, flat 21.1 km run through the energizing Kurpark of Bad Schönborn, this race demands focus, preparation, and strategy.
Our 44-Week Intermediate Training Plan is crafted specifically to help you peak for success on this exact course. Whether it’s your first time racing in Kraichgau or you’re looking to break a personal best, this plan ensures you show up strong, confident, and ready to perform.
Why This Plan Works for Kraichgau:
✅ Perfect for Rolling Terrain: With over 1000 meters of climbing on the bike, you’ll need more than just endurance. This plan builds leg strength, climbing efficiency, and descending confidence with terrain-specific bike workouts.
✅ Swim Like a Pro: Hardtsee offers calm, clear water—but efficiency is still key. Our open water swim sets and technique-focused drills are designed to help you conserve energy and maintain form from start to finish.
✅ Run Strong to the Finish: The three-lap run course is flat but mentally demanding. Tempo and brick workouts simulate the final 13.1 miles, training both your body and mind for peak performance in the final stretch.
✅ Race-Specific Intensity: Integrates heart rate and power-based sessions that mirror Kraichgau’s real-world demands—helping you train smarter and avoid burnout.
✅ Built for Intermediate Triathletes: You’ll start with a 12-week base phase requiring no prior fitness, and progress through 32 weeks of focused triathlon training. Weekly hours grow gradually from 9 to a manageable 14, helping you build consistently without injury.
✅ Strength & Durability Focus: Includes expert-guided strength training, V02 intervals, anaerobic threshold sessions, and flexibility work to boost performance and recovery.
✅ Engaging & Educational: Access expert video tutorials and clear weekly goals to stay motivated and on track.
