Plan Description

This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is purpose-built for experienced athletes over 40, offering a structured path toward confident race execution in Krakow’s varied and historic setting.

🏊 Swim – 1.9 km | Zakrzówek Reservoir
The plan includes progressive swim workouts, open-water simulation, and technique drills tailored for older athletes. With video-supported sessions, you'll develop the aerobic endurance and form efficiency necessary for a calm, single-loop swim in the clear, cool waters of the Zakrzówek Reservoir.

🚴 Bike – 90 km | Through Lesser Poland to Bochnia
The course features a blend of flats and moderate climbs, with elevation gains that require sustained power and pacing control. This plan integrates heart rate and power-based bike sessions, plus brick workouts that simulate terrain-specific efforts. Structured VO₂ max and tempo intervals help you prepare for the demands of the rolling Polish countryside and the fan-filled turnaround at Bochnia’s historic market square.

🏃 Run – 21.1 km | Krakow’s Historic Streets
A four-loop run through the Vistula River boulevards and Main Market Square requires pacing precision, muscular resilience, and mental focus. This plan builds that foundation with controlled tempo efforts, strength-focused run sessions, and a progressive approach to threshold development—ensuring you're ready for a consistent and confident half marathon finish through Kraków’s historic core.
