Plan Description

The Half Distance Triathlon in Vitoria-Gasteiz is as breathtaking as it is challenging. With a 1.9 km swim in the pristine waters of Ulibarri-Gamboa Lake, a 90 km bike ride through the scenic Álava region with 500m of elevation gain, and a 21 km run through the vibrant heart of the city to the historic Plaza España, this event is an unforgettable test of endurance. Our advanced 44-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is designed to prepare you for every detail of this world-class course.

✅ Swim Readiness for Ulibarri-Gamboa Lake
Structured swim sessions focus on technique, endurance, and open-water confidence—perfect for navigating the calm but competitive lake environment.

✅ Bike Strength for the Álava Region
The plan builds sustainable power and stamina to handle the 90 km one-loop ride with rolling terrain and 500m of climbing, so you’ll ride strong and steady through the picturesque towns and even along sections of the Camino de Santiago.

✅ Run Preparedness for Downtown Vitoria-Gasteiz
Two-loop run training on flat, fast terrain simulates the 21.1 km course, helping you stay sharp while feeding off the energy of thousands of spectators cheering you toward Plaza España.
