Plan Description
Train Smart for the Zell am See-Kaprun Half Distance Triathlon — with Expert Support and a Proven Plan
Racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Zell am See-Kaprun is as breathtaking as it is challenging — from the crystal-clear waters of Lake Zell to the steep alpine climbs of the Filzen Saddle and the flat, fast lakeside run. Our 36-week Beginner Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is specifically designed to prepare you for every aspect of this iconic course, whether you're starting fresh or returning for redemption.
✅ Build Confidence in the Water
Start with a 12-week technique-focused base phase featuring video-guided swim drills that simulate the single-loop course in Lake Zell. With average water temperatures between 17–23°C (63–73°F), you'll be mentally and physically ready for the cool conditions.
🚴 Train for the Alps
The bike course features nearly 870m of climbing, including steep 15% pitches to the 1,280m Filzen Saddle. Our plan gradually builds your climbing strength with progressive long rides, heart rate-based intervals, and simulation workouts — all tailored to help you crush the descent into Saalfelden and power back to Schüttdorf.
🏃 Perfect Your Pacing for a Fast Run
Two laps along Lake Zell's shoreline demand smart pacing and efficient form. Our run training emphasizes aerobic development, tempo efforts, and brick workouts that mimic race-day fatigue, ensuring you finish strong in Zell’s charming old town.
