Plan Description

Train for the Half Distance Triathlon Vichy with Confidence - 36-Week Training Plan for Senior Triathletes 60+

✓ Personalized Email Coach Support Included

Preparing for the Half Distance Triathlon Vichy? This scenic and challenging course—featuring a warm swim in Lac d’Allier, a rolling 90K bike through the Auvergne countryside, and a flat, fast half marathon along the Allier River—demands smart, age-specific preparation. Our 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan for athletes 60+ is purpose-built to get you race-ready, safely and effectively.

Here’s how this plan sets you up for success in Vichy:

✅ Built for the Course
Train for Vichy's unique demands with targeted workouts that match the course profile—including rolling bike terrain, warm swim conditions, and heat-adapted run sessions.

✅ Progressive, Age-Specific Design
We start with a base-building phase that restores cardiovascular fitness and mobility—perfect if you’re returning after time off. Then we ramp up to event-specific endurance and intensity using a proven 2:1 work-to-recovery rhythm that respects your body's needs.

✅ Smart Swim Preparation
With video-guided swim drills and aerobic-focused sets, you’ll build the strength and technique needed for Vichy’s clear, wetsuit-optional lake swim.

✅ Strength & Mobility Support
Weekly strength workouts help maintain bone density and muscle mass—key for power on the bike and resilience on the run.

✅ Brick Workouts for Fast Transitions
You'll practice back-to-back bike-run sessions to prep for the race’s two-loop run and nail the pacing from transition to finish line.

✅ Structured for Smart Time Use
Training volume builds from 7.5 to 12 hours per week—manageable, realistic, and tuned for athletes with full lives and evolving recovery needs.

✅ Course-Specific Peak Phase
In the final 12 weeks, you'll sharpen race skills with threshold intervals, Vichy-simulated rides, and open-water readiness.

🏁 Whether you're aiming to finish strong or improve your performance, this Half Distance Triathlon training plan gives you a clear roadmap tailored for Vichy—and for triathletes over 60 who want to train with purpose and race with pride.
