Plan Description
Preparing for the Full Distance Triathlon in Lake Placid demands a tailored approach to match the unique terrain, climate, and intensity of this iconic race. With its 2.4-mile swim in Mirror Lake, a 112-mile bike ride through the Adirondacks featuring nearly 8,000 feet of climbing, and a hilly 26.2-mile marathon, this event tests both physical and mental strength. The Competitive Masters 40+ Six-Month Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan is purpose-built to meet these demands and guide you toward peak performance.
This 24-week plan is structured for athletes who have a solid base and are ready to tackle the specific challenges of the Lake Placid course. From the rolling terrain of River Road to the high-speed Keene descent, you’ll train with workouts that simulate the race-day environment, preparing you for both the technical and aerobic demands.
Here’s how this plan supports your success:
Terrain-Specific Training: Structured hill intervals and long tempo rides mirror the elevation profile of the Adirondacks, helping you build climbing strength and descending confidence.
Cold-Water Swim Readiness: Open water swim workouts and targeted technique drills—delivered straight to your device—prepare you for the two-loop swim in 72°F (22°C) water, guided by Mirror Lake’s underwater cable.
Weather Adaptation: Long runs in cooler conditions and fatigue-focused brick sessions build the mental and physical toughness needed to perform in Lake Placid’s 63°F (17°C) July air.
Integrated Recovery: A 3-weeks-on, 1-week-off format allows consistent adaptation and injury prevention for busy masters athletes.
Smart, Device-Ready Training: Sync structured swim, bike, and run sessions to your Garmin device for seamless daily execution.
Coaching Access: You’ll receive personalized email support to stay on track and adjust your training when life gets in the way.
You’re not just training for a finish—you’re preparing to perform. Gain the confidence, conditioning, and course readiness you need for Lake Placid’s Full Distance Triathlon.
Start your plan today and train smart with expert support behind every session.
