Plan Description

🏁 Race Strong at the Half Distance Triathlon Elsinore, Denmark

Elite Training Plan for Senior Triathletes 60+

Step into one of the world’s most scenic and historic triathlons—the Half Distance Triathlon Elsinore, Denmark. Your race begins with a 1.9 km (1.2 mile) swim in the calm waters of Elsinore Harbour, right beside Kronborg Castle, the legendary setting of Shakespeare’s Hamlet.

Next, conquer a fast and rolling 90 km bike course along Northern Sealand’s breathtaking coastline. Ride through lush forests and seaside villages like Hornbæk, on a course designed for speed and inspiration.

Finish with a 21.1 km (13.1 mile) run through Elsinore’s historic center and castle grounds, cheered on by thousands of enthusiastic spectators.

To thrive on this course, senior triathletes need more than just a generic plan—they need structured, age-specific training that prioritizes strength, endurance, recovery, and race-day execution.

💡 Why This 44-Week Training Plan is Built for You:
✅ Age-Specific Foundation: Begin with 12 weeks of low-impact base building to improve mobility, aerobic strength, and confidence.

✅ Smart Periodization (2:1 cycles): Respect your body’s recovery rhythm with built-in rest and adaptation.

✅ Joint-Safe Strength Work: Maintain muscle mass and bone density with low-risk, high-reward resistance training.

✅ Endurance & Speed: Aerobic sessions build stamina while VO₂ max intervals improve pacing and finish-line speed.

✅ Race-Specific Focus: Brick workouts simulate Elsinore’s transitions and terrain—especially valuable for senior athletes.

✅ Device-Compatible Workouts: Sync with Garmin, smartwatches, and popular training apps.

✅ Email Coach Support: Get guidance when you need it—personalized, responsive coaching via email is included.
