Your runway

47 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.

Abraham Spring, founder of Unbroken

“The prettiest middle distance in England and organised by the Outlaw team, which is all the recommendation it needs. Flat, but north Norfolk wind is real.”

Abraham Spring: founder, Unbroken

The race

Holkham is the Outlaw team applying their usual standards to one of the finest estates in England. The swim is in the hall's own lake. The bike runs flat through north Norfolk countryside, where the only resistance is the wind coming off the coast. The run is parkland and estate roads with the hall in view. A strong first middle distance, and an easy one to bring family to.
