Designed specifically for senior triathletes aged 60 and above, this plan carefully balances endurance, strength, and recovery to prepare you for the swim, bike, and run challenges unique to this iconic race.
🏊♂️ Swim Readiness: The plan builds your swimming capacity progressively through 166 focused sessions, including open-water skills and video-led drills. You’ll gain the technique and confidence to master the 3.8 km swim in the calm Adriatic Sea waters off Cervia’s central beach, ensuring efficient stroke mechanics and energy conservation.
🚴 Bike Performance: With 152 sessions totaling over 185 hours, the cycling component develops your power and endurance on varied terrain like Romagna’s countryside and Salt Pans Nature Park. The structured, power-based intervals help you sustain speed and manage effort throughout the 180 km two-loop course, including the descent from Bertinoro.
🏃♂️ Run Endurance: The plan prepares you for the full marathon distance across four flat loops through Cervia and Milano Marittima. With 122 run sessions focused on heart rate and power zones, you’ll build stamina and speed to handle the 42 km course featuring historic landmarks and scenic routes without undue fatigue.
