Plan Description

Tackle one of triathlon’s most iconic and demanding events with confidence. The Full Distance Triathlon Lake Placid challenges athletes with a 2.4-mile swim in Mirror Lake, a hilly 112-mile bike ride through the Adirondacks, and a 26.2-mile marathon with rolling terrain. This course demands more than general fitness—it requires specific, targeted preparation for terrain, temperature, and endurance.

The 44-Week Advanced Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan is built to prepare you precisely for what Lake Placid delivers on race day.

✅ Swim-Specific Training for Mirror Lake
Train for open-water comfort with technique-focused workouts and endurance sets that simulate Lake Placid’s calm but long two-loop course. Our plan prepares you to pace confidently and swim efficiently, maximizing the advantage of Mirror Lake’s underwater cable for straight-line navigation.

✅ Hill-Ready Cycling for the Adirondacks
With nearly 8,000 feet of climbing, Lake Placid’s bike leg is not just long—it’s relentless. You’ll tackle structured sessions like climbing accelerations and Anaerobic Power Training to develop sustained strength for “Papa Bear Hill” and high-speed control for the “Keene Descent.”

✅ Endurance and Resilience for the Run
The two-loop marathon on rolling terrain demands a deep aerobic base and the mental grit to push through late-race fatigue. Long bricks, threshold runs, and aerobic training on fatigued legs build the specific resilience needed to finish strong, even when the hills bite back.
