Plan Description
The Full Distance Triathlon Switzerland-Thun is one of Europe’s most visually stunning and physically demanding endurance races. With a 3.8 km swim in the clear, glacial waters of Lake Thun, a challenging 180 km ride through alpine foothills with 2,000m of climbing, and a flat but multi-loop 42.2 km run along the lake and through the city, preparation is everything.
That’s where this 24-week Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan comes in.
🎯 Built for High-Performance Amateur Athletes
This plan is not for beginners. You must have a well-established aerobic base before starting. From day one, the training demands high-level focus, starting with a 25-minute Anaerobic Threshold interval set in the first week.
Over 6 months, training volume builds strategically from 10.5 to 18 hours per week. Every session is designed with the unique demands of the Thun course in mind—from the open-water swim loops and technical bike descents to the long, steady run segments.
✅ Develop deep aerobic capacity through base mile swim, bike, and run workouts
✅ Climb strong with hill-specific intervals that mimic the elevation of Thun's bike course
✅ Build top-end power with anaerobic threshold, VO2 max, and ATP-PC sprint intervals
✅ Execute smooth transitions with progressive brick workouts
✅ Swim confidently with structured open-water sessions and drill-focused videos
✅ Refine your running form using AI-generated gait analysis
✅ Target race-day pacing using heart rate and power-based intervals
📩 All Plans Include Personalized Email Coach Support
You won’t go it alone. Questions, adaptations, and feedback—directly from your coach, every step of the way.
🎯 Whether you're returning for another Full Distance race or stepping up to the challenge in Thun for the first time, this training plan is your strategic roadmap to peak performance.
Commit to your Full Distance Triathlon goals today. Begin training with a proven system built for this course—and for athletes like you.
