Plan Description
The Middle Distance Triathlon Gunsan Korea Training Plan is expertly designed to prepare you for every unique aspect of this exceptional race course, ensuring you arrive at race day confident and ready to perform at your best.
Starting with the swim, this plan focuses heavily on building swim technique and endurance tailored for the calm, sheltered 1.9 km Yellow Sea swim. You’ll benefit from targeted swim drills and open-water sessions, helping you master the two-lap course while navigating the marked buoys smoothly. Emphasis on stroke efficiency and breathing control ensures you’re comfortable in the clear, protected waters.
The bike leg demands power and endurance for the fast, flat 90 km course along the Saemangeum seawall, the world’s longest seawall. This training plan introduces structured interval rides based on RPE and heart rate, gradually building your ability to sustain high speeds on smooth, traffic-free roads. With strength training incorporated, you’ll improve your muscle resilience to handle slight coastal winds and maintain steady pacing while enjoying stunning views of the Gogunsan Archipelago.
On the run, the plan prepares you for the 21.1 km flat, three-lap half marathon on an eco-friendly waterfront route. Through tempo runs and anaerobic threshold workouts, you develop the stamina and speed necessary to navigate this fast course confidently. Hydration and fueling strategies embedded in the training ensure you stay comfortable and energized throughout.
