🌊🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️ Your Road to the Half Distance Triathlon in Nice Starts Here

If you're planning to race the Half Distance Triathlon in Nice, you already know this event demands serious preparation. The swim in the Mediterranean, the climb up Col de Vence, and the run along the Promenade des Anglais—it’s a course that rewards discipline, consistency, and smart training.

This 44-week plan was built specifically for athletes like you—driven, focused, and ready to commit to a structured path toward success.

✅ Start Strong—Even Without a Base
You don’t need to show up with a training foundation. The first 12 weeks are designed to help you build your aerobic base and general conditioning. It’s the groundwork you’ll need to handle the more demanding phases ahead.

✅ Train with Purpose for 32 Weeks
From there, you'll follow a focused 32-week progression. You’ll train in a 3:1 cycle—three weeks of solid work, followed by a recovery week to absorb gains and reduce injury risk. It’s a proven structure that helps you train hard without burning out.

✅ Your Time is Respected
You’ll start at around 9.5 hours per week, gradually building to a peak of 14 hours in week 39. The plan is manageable, even with a full schedule, and offers steady progress without overloading you too soon.

✅ Prepare Specifically for Nice
Every session is designed with the race course in mind:

🌊 Open water swim prep to build comfort and endurance in sea conditions

🚵‍♀️ Hill-focused rides to prepare you for Col de Vence and rolling terrain

🏃‍♀️ Heat-aware run training for back-to-back loops along the Promenade des Anglais

✅ Train Across All Energy Systems
Expect a full spectrum of structured workouts:

Endurance base building

VO₂ max and anaerobic threshold development

Sprint and power work (ATP-PC system)

Functional strength that transitions into traditional strength training over time

✅ Email Coaching Support Included
If questions come up or you need help adjusting the plan, email support is included. You won’t be left to figure things out alone.

You're putting a lot into this goal. This plan gives you a clear path, expert structure, and the support you need to arrive on race day ready—mentally and physically.

👉 Let’s get started. Commit to your training and take the next step toward your Half Distance Triathlon in Nice.
