This 44-week Middle Distance Triathlon training plan is designed specifically for athletes over 40 who are preparing for the iconic St. Pölten Middle Distance Triathlon in Austria. With its split-lake swim, scenic alpine bike course, and riverside run, St. Pölten demands a well-rounded approach—and this plan delivers.
✅ Builds Swim Confidence for a Unique Two-Lake Start
The early phase develops foundational endurance and swim technique, preparing you for the calm yet unique split-swim format of Viehofner and Ratzersdorfer See. Drills and open water-focused workouts help you stay composed during the lake-to-lake transition across the blue carpet.
✅ Prepares You for the Fast Yet Demanding 90 KM Ride
You’ll train on structured power-based rides with rolling terrain profiles, ideal for mimicking the smooth but challenging Austrian motorway sections and Lower Alpine climbs. With 1,000m of elevation on race day, you'll benefit from progressive build weeks that emphasize strength, climbing ability, and efficient pacing.
✅ Run-Ready for the Flat, Crowd-Filled Course
Pacing is key for the energetic, flat run along the Traisen River. This plan includes race-paced intervals, brick sessions, and back-to-back endurance workouts to help you hold form and energy through both loops—right into that final stretch to the St. Pölten red carpet.
