Plan Description
Train to Conquer the Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau
Advanced 6-Month Training Plan for Serious Athletes
The Half Distance Triathlon Kraichgau isn't just a race—it's a rite of passage through Germany's breathtaking "land of 1000 hills." This course demands more than determination; it requires a smart, structured approach to training that prepares you for every climb, surge, and stride.
Begin with a 1.9 km swim in the crystal-clear waters of Hardtsee, averaging 73°F (23°C). Then take on 90 km of cycling through forests and vineyards, gaining over 1000 meters of elevation. Finish with a 21.1 km run through the revitalized Kurpark in Bad Schönborn, fueled by Kraichgau’s legendary crowd support and 72°F (22°C) race-day temps.
To meet the challenge, our 6-Month Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is engineered specifically for experienced athletes ready to elevate their performance. You’ll start at 9.5 hours per week, peaking at 14 hours—a progressive build that enhances stamina and maximizes race-day readiness.
This plan includes:
- Endurance Aerobic Mile Training to build your aerobic engine for the long haul.
- VO2 Max Sessions to improve your oxygen uptake and elevate race intensity.
- Anaerobic Threshold Training so you can maintain faster paces for longer.
- Power Sprints and Interval Workouts to sharpen your speed and climbing strength on the bike and run.
This isn’t for beginners—it’s for athletes with a strong base who are serious about excelling on a world-class course like Kraichgau.
If you’re ready to push your limits, dominate the climbs, and feel unstoppable crossing that finish line, this is your next step.
Step into the Kraichgau challenge—start your training today.
