Plan Description
Tackle the Half Distance Triathlon Duisburg with purpose and preparation through our 36-week beginner training plan—designed to take you from the couch to the finish line, even if you're starting from scratch. Duisburg’s flat, fast course, iconic landmarks, and roaring stadium finish demand a training plan built to match the experience. This is that plan.
The journey begins with a 12-week base phase that lays the groundwork. You’ll build cardiovascular endurance, strengthen key muscle groups, and improve your swim technique with structured drills and video-guided swim sessions. Duisburg’s 1.9 km swim in the calm waters of the Sportpark Duisburg regatta course becomes less intimidating when you’ve trained with a plan built for confidence in the water.
Next, the plan transitions into a focused 24-week Half Distance Triathlon-specific phase, progressing from 7 to 12 hours of weekly training. This phase is where endurance meets strategy:
✅ Open-water readiness for the cool, spectator-lined lake start
✅ Flat-course cycling preparation for the 90.1 km ride through Duisburg’s vibrant cityscape and across the historic Brücke der Solidarität
✅ Three-loop run simulation that mirrors the 21.1 km course through Duisburg’s green parklands, ending with a grand finish in the football stadium
✅ Brick workouts to strengthen bike-run transitions
✅ Strength training with video demos to improve posture, reduce injury risk, and maintain power across disciplines
✅ Structured sessions based on Rate of Perceived Effort (RPE) and heart rate for smart, personalized progression
🎯 No prior triathlon experience required. This plan meets you where you are—and builds you into the athlete who belongs on the starting line in Duisburg.
