Plan Description
Racing the Full Distance Triathlon in Nice, France is one of the most demanding yet rewarding challenges in endurance sport. From the warm Mediterranean swim to the relentless alpine climbs and the sun-drenched marathon along the Promenade des Anglais, success on this course requires more than just mileage—it demands precision, resilience, and purpose-driven training.
This 44-week Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan is engineered for Masters athletes (age 40+) who want to train smart and race hard. Whether you're returning after time off or pursuing a personal best, this plan adapts to your current fitness and guides you toward peak performance—right when it matters most.
