Plan Description

Are you preparing for the Half Distance Triathlon Switzerland? This race isn’t just scenic—it’s a true test of endurance. From the crystal-clear waters of the Obersee, to the steep climbs through the Rickengebiet hills, to the iconic 112-step “Stairway to Heaven” on the run course, this triathlon demands focus, fitness, and a solid strategy.

That’s where our Beginner’s Six-Month Half Distance Triathlon Switzerland Training Plan comes in. Designed specifically for first-time triathletes, this plan builds the endurance, strength, and confidence you need to cross the finish line with pride.

✅ What You’ll Gain from This Training Plan:

✅ Week-by-Week Progression: Start with 7 hours in Week 1 and gradually build to 12 hours/week by Week 19. No guesswork—just consistent gains.

✅ Swim Like a Pro: Master open-water technique and pacing. You’ll train with purpose using tempo sets and skills drills tailored for the 1.9 km Obersee swim.

✅ Crush the Bike Course: Ride stronger with hill repeats and intervals that prepare you for the 1000m+ of climbing on the 90 km course.

✅ Conquer the Run: Improve your stamina and pacing with structured 21.1 km run workouts, including strength-focused sessions to power you up those legendary stairs.

✅ Full-Body Strength Training: 💪 Reduce injury risk and boost endurance with strength sessions built for beginner triathletes—complete with guided video instruction.

✅ Coach Support: Have questions? You’ll receive responsive coaching guidance via email to stay on track and race-ready.

This is more than a plan—it’s your blueprint to success at the Half Distance Triathlon Switzerland.
