Plan Description

Half Distance Triathlon Tours Métropole - Loire Valley, France

Swim, Bike, and Run Through History — And Be Ready for It

Racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Tours Métropole - Loire Valley means immersing yourself in French history while pushing your limits across a breathtaking course. To help you perform at your best on race day, we’ve created a comprehensive 6-month Beginner’s Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan—designed specifically for athletes like you.

This plan is your roadmap to conquering:

✅ A calm 1.9 km swim in the scenic River Cher

✅ A fast and flat 90 km bike ride past majestic châteaux like Château d’Ussé

✅ A 21.1 km riverside run through the tranquil Honoré de Balzac Park

Whether you're new to triathlon or returning after time away, this plan builds your endurance, technique, and confidence in progressive, manageable steps.

What Makes This Training Plan Stand Out:

✅ Structured Weekly Build-Up: Start at just 7 hours/week and build up to 12 hours with smart, progressive load.

✅ VO2 Max & Threshold Training: Integrated in later weeks to improve speed and stamina without burnout.

✅ Swim-Specific Technique Work: Develop open-water comfort and stroke efficiency through guided sessions.

✅ Bike & Run Intervals Based on RPE & Heart Rate: Train smarter, not harder, with proven performance zones.

✅ Strength Training for Triathletes: Build durability with guided routines and form-focused videos.

✅ Email Support: Questions? Need help adjusting your plan? We’re with you every step of the way.

💡 This is more than a training schedule—it’s your ticket to a confident, well-prepared race day in one of France’s most iconic regions.
