Plan Description
Train Smart for the Half Distance Triathlon in Nice, France: 36-Week Plan for Senior Athletes 60+
The Half Distance Triathlon in Nice is a demanding race featuring a 1.9 km swim in the Mediterranean Sea, a challenging 90 km bike course with the notable ascent of Col de Vence, and a two-loop 21.1 km run along the historic Promenade des Anglais. Average race day temperatures—72°F (22°C) water and 75°F (24°C) air—require targeted preparation.
This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is designed for senior triathletes aged 60+ aiming to move beyond Sprint and Olympic distances. It develops endurance, strength, and race readiness while minimizing injury risk and respecting recovery needs.
How This Plan Supports Your Performance in Nice:

✅ Strength and Climbing Power for the Bike Course
Targeted workouts prepare you for the hilly 90 km ride and the ascent of Col de Vence.
✅ Run Endurance and Efficiency
Brick workouts and threshold sessions build the stamina and pace control necessary for the two-loop run on the Promenade des Anglais.
✅ Balanced Training and Recovery
A 2:1 work-to-recovery ratio supports consistent progress and reduces overtraining, critical for senior athletes.
✅ Device-Compatible Workouts
Compatible with Garmin and other smart platforms for precise tracking of heart rate and power metrics.
