3 weeks to race day: the sharpening window

A full build no longer fits, but a sharp one does. This close in, the job is specificity and freshness: race-pace touches, open-water or brick rehearsal, and a taper your nervous system actually absorbs. No heroics; arrive fresh.

Recover
Fix the nervous system first. Sleep, HRV, and the noise out.

Fit the plan to your actual life, not the one you wish you had.
C
Condition
Minimum effective dose. The right sessions, done fresh.
E
Execute
Race-week protocol, pacing, contingency. Nothing new on race day.

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.

“One of the best value races in Europe once you count flights and hotels. Flat, well organised, and a calm regatta lake swim.”

The race

Poznan is quietly one of the smartest races on the European calendar. Lake Malta is a purpose built regatta lake, so the swim is flat and easy to sight. The bike and run are flat. Flights are cheap, the city is compact and the whole trip costs a fraction of a Western European race weekend without giving up organisation quality.
