Whether you're a seasoned Masters athlete or just starting your triathlon journey, this elite 44-week training plan is designed specifically for athletes 40+ who want to perform at their peak in one of the most stunning races in Europe.
Race Overview – Know Your Course
🏊 Swim: Glide through 1.9 km (1.2 miles) of crystal-clear water in Lake Peyrolles, just outside Aix-en-Provence. With calm conditions averaging 64°F (18°C), this is a comfortable and confidence-building start to your race.
🚴 Bike: Tackle a scenic 90 km (56 miles) ride with 1,077 meters of climbing. You’ll ride through the flat plains and into the technical, twisty hills of Montagne Sainte-Victoire—Provence’s most iconic landscape. Disc wheels are prohibited for your safety due to potential wind.
🏃 Run: Finish with a three-loop, 21.1 km (13.1 miles) course from the center of Aix to Parc de la Torse, with a triumphant finish at La Rotonde fountain, surrounded by cheering crowds.
