9 weeks to race day: a full block fits

This is the sweet spot. A complete 12-week recovery-led build fits inside the runway with room for a base phase in front. Anchor the block to race day and every week between now and then has a reason.

R
Recover
Consider recovery context, sleep and readiness before adding training load.
A
Align
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? Training plans cover the sessions, the weekly shape and how the block is paced. The R.A.C.E. Framework explains why it is built that way.
