Plan Description

The Full Distance Triathlon Lake Placid offers one of the most iconic and demanding race experiences in North America. You'll face a 2.4-mile swim in the pristine Mirror Lake, a challenging 112-mile bike course through the Adirondacks with 8,000 feet of elevation, and a marathon featuring rolling terrain and village energy. Cool July temperatures (63–72°F / 17–22°C) and breathtaking scenery make it memorable—but also physically and mentally rigorous.

Our Six-Month Intermediate Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan is engineered specifically to meet the demands of this unique event. Whether it's the swim, the high-speed Keene descent, or the climbs like Papa Bear Hill, this structured plan prepares you for each segment—terrain, elevation, pacing, and fatigue.

✅ Terrain-Specific Training: Hill repeats, long tempo efforts, and strength-endurance bike sessions simulate Lake Placid’s elevation and descents, helping you build power and confidence on climbs and control on technical sections.

✅ Race-Ready Swim Preparation: Open-water sessions and sighting drills replicate Mirror Lake's calm conditions while emphasizing pacing and efficiency.

✅ Progressive Brick Workouts: Adapt to the fatigue of Lake Placid’s marathon with back-to-back sessions that train your legs to run strong off the bike—especially on rolling hills.

✅ Time-Efficient Structure: Starting at just 8 hours/week and building to 16, the plan includes structured intervals, rest weeks, and cross-discipline training for sustainable progress.

✅ Injury Prevention & Support: Integrated strength training and personalized video-based gait and swim analysis help reduce injury risk and enhance technique.

✅ Bonus: Coach Email Support: Get expert guidance along the way, tailored to your unique progress and questions.

🏊‍♂️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Don’t just race—arrive prepared. This Full Distance Triathlon plan builds endurance, mental strength, and technical skill for Lake Placid’s demanding course.

👉 Start your journey today and train with purpose, precision, and expert support.
