Your runway

57 weeks to race day: base season

Plenty of runway. This far out, the win is a boring, consistent base rhythm: aerobic volume, strength, technique. The structured 12-week block starts later; what you do now decides how high it can climb.

Building for this one? 70.3 training plan covers the sessions, the weekly shape and how the block is paced. The R.A.C.E. Framework explains why it is built that way.

“The half runs alongside the full at Nice, so a group can travel together and pick their distance. Same sea, same Promenade finish, half the day.”

The race

If Nice appeals but a full distance in the Alpes-Maritimes does not, this is the answer. You get the same warm Mediterranean swim, a shortened version of the climbing into the hinterland, and the same finish on the Promenade des Anglais. Racing on the same day as the full means clubs can travel as one group across two distances.
