Will you be ready when you will take the start of the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon next August? If you have even the slightest doubt, it is probably time to look for a plan tailored to the race so you can approach the start line with confidence. Belief in your ability to finish is one of the key factors for success. Thanks to the expertise of its creators, iDO Sport supports you all the way to race day with its official 12-week triathlon training plan.
1. Is your training plan really suited to the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon?
As the saying goes, it’s never too late to do things properly. With just over 3 months to go before the race, there is still time to follow an effective training plan and arrive fully prepared on the start line. Perhaps you already have a programme, but is it really suited to the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon, which is unlike any other event? Altitude, mountainous terrain and summer heat make this race particularly demanding. A training plan must take these specific conditions into account to prepare both body and mind for such unusual challenges. The iDO Sport plan, designed by Charlotte Morel and Fred Belaubre—both experts of the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon and past winners—incorporates the specific demands of the race. This allows you to maximise your chances of performing at your best.
2. How many hours of training per week are really needed to prepare for the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon?
This is the big question! Between work commitments, family life and social obligations, it is not always easy to find enough time to train for a triathlon. Many people assume that you would need to work part-time to train properly. In reality, that is not the case: it is totally possible to prepare effectively for the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon with limited time each week. The iDO Sport app adapts to your availability, allowing you to tailor your programme according to the number of hours you can—and want to—dedicate to training each week. Other personalisation criteria, such as your level and your goals, also allow the plan to be adjusted. Following a personalised plan boosts motivation, optimises each session and provides a reassuring structure. You move from “I’ll give it a go and see what happens” to “I will be a finisher”. That makes all the difference, doesn’t it?
3. Is it impossible to prepare for the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon without a coach?
Not everyone has the means or the desire to hire a personal coach. Yet, as everyone knows, the benefits of personalised coaching are undeniable: precise individualisation, near-daily adjustments to the programme, and the ability to discuss your sensations, a minor pain or a doubt. To benefit from structured support at an accessible price, turning to an app is a highly relevant option. A true digital coach, iDO Sport is offered at a promotional rate to participants of the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon to help them prepare in the best possible way. Far from being purely virtual, iDO Sport coaching also allows you to ask your questions directly to Charlotte Morel and Fred Belaubre.
“An excellent training plan that allowed me to prepare as well as possible for my main goal of the year, with structured training cycles and progressive load. Well-designed and enjoyable sessions. Many thanks to the entire iDO team and to Fred for taking the time to answer a few of my questions during my preparation.”
The iDO Sport 12-week training plan has been specifically designed by Charlotte Morel and Fred Belaubre to prepare for the Alpe d’Huez Triathlon. It allows you to fine-tune your preparation over the final 12 weeks before race day and ensures you arrive fully ready on the start line.
