This expert-designed 24-week training plan is your complete roadmap—from your first structured session to a personal-best finish. Created for experienced triathletes aged 40+, it balances intensity, recovery, and technique to help you perform at your highest level without burning out or breaking down.
🏊 Swim – Master the 1.9-Mile Dämeritzsee Loop
The calm waters of Strandbad Erkner demand endurance and efficiency. You'll develop both through structured swim sessions that build aerobic capacity and refine form. With heart rate targets and technique-focused drills, you’ll enter the water strong and leave it energized for the bike.
🚴 Bike – Hold Power on the Fast and Scenic 90km Course
Brandenburg’s flat terrain lets you race fast—if you’re prepared to hold your wattage for hours. Our plan includes progressive rides using heart rate, RPE, and power, helping you pace with confidence and finish the ride without fatigue stealing your run.
🏃 Run – Execute on the 21.1km Multi-Lap Course
Whether you're aiming for a podium or a personal best, this plan helps you run strong through the final kilometers. Interval and tempo runs improve pacing, while course-specific workouts help you handle the mental and physical demands of looped running with spectators cheering every lap.
