Plan Description
You’ve done the work. You know the grind. Now it’s time to rise to a new level. The Full Distance Triathlon Italy in Cervia is more than just another race—it’s an opportunity to test everything you've built as an athlete.
Our 36-week Full Distance Advanced Triathlon Training Plan Italy is meticulously designed to elevate your performance for race day. With a focus on endurance, speed, and resilience, this plan prepares you to excel in Cervia’s unique course—from the salt-kissed Adriatic swim to the fast, scenic bike and flat, historic run.
🏊 Why This Plan Works for Italy’s Full Distance Triathlon
Italy’s course is stunning but demanding. You’ll need more than general fitness—you’ll need course-specific readiness.
✅ Swim-Specific Prep: Build open-water confidence with technique-focused drills and video instruction tailored for a 3.8 km shoreline swim in the Adriatic Sea. You’ll be ready for sighting, pacing, and sustained performance in 72°F (22°C) waters.
🚴 Bike-Ready Strength: The 180 km ride features countryside flats, Salt Pans vistas, and the descent from Bertinoro. Our plan includes structured power-based intervals and climbing-specific workouts that simulate the race profile, making you efficient and race-ready.
🏃 Flat Course Speed: The 42 km run through Cervia and Milano Marittima is flat—but not easy. Our brick sessions, threshold runs, and VO2 max training help you handle the heat, loops, and mental repetition of a four-lap course.
