Plan Description

Racing the Full Distance Triathlon in Frankfurt, Germany, means preparing for one of Europe’s most iconic endurance events. With a swim start at Langer Waldsee, a challenging and scenic 180 km bike through the German countryside, and a fast, flat marathon course along the Main River, success on race day demands more than just determination—it requires smart, progressive training.

Our 36-Week Full Distance Triathlon Intermediate Training Plan is strategically designed to match the demands of Frankfurt’s unique course profile and race conditions. Backed by years of coaching experience and performance data, this plan targets key performance factors specific to this event’s terrain and format.

✅ Phase 1: 12-Week Base Training

Build foundational aerobic endurance from scratch—no prior base miles needed

Focus on swimming efficiency and introductory strength work

Begin developing key mobility and durability to handle long sessions later

✅ Phase 2: 24-Week Full Distance-Specific Training

Structured 3:1 week training block system to avoid overtraining and support long-term progress

Includes VO₂ intervals, aerobic threshold runs, and progressive long rides to simulate Frankfurt’s hilly bike terrain

Weekly open water prep and brick sessions to reflect Frankfurt’s two-transition format

✅ Targeted Strength Training

Integrated strength program focused on joint stability and power output, especially useful for the hills and flats of the Mainhattan bike course

Video demos for every movement ensure proper form and progression

✅ Real-World Race Simulation

Sessions mimic the feel of Frankfurt’s warm water (73°F) and mild air temps (77°F)

Long runs along flat routes build confidence for the Main riverbank course

Long rides prepare you for two demanding loops of elevation gain and fast segments
