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:
