When is the 2027 BreathMan?

On Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 June 2027, at Lake Saint-Ferréol. The L triathlon starts on Sunday 20 June at 7:30 am; the M is held the day before at 9 am. In 2026 the L was held on Sunday 21 June.

How much is the BreathMan L triathlon?

€120 until 31 October 2026, then €135, €150 and €170 depending on the date and quotas, excluding the platform fee and the Licence Expérience for non-licensed athletes.

What are the L cut-offs?

1 hour of racing at the end of the swim and 6 hours at the end of the bike, according to the 2027 page. In 2026 there was one more cut-off at km 21 of the bike, after 2h30 of racing. Beyond that, athletes are stopped.

Is drafting allowed at the BreathMan?

No, on none of the races, except between the two teammates of a pair. Road bikes, city bikes and mountain bikes are accepted, e-bikes are not.

BreathMan Triathlon (Revel): how many weeks of preparation?

For an athlete at intermediate level, Endu builds a 21-week preparation. If your race is closer, the plan compresses phases while keeping the taper; if it's further away, it lengthens the preparation, and when the gap is large the preparation starts right away, gently and at your current volume, before building up.

How many sessions per week?

This example has 6 sessions per week. You choose 5 to 7 training days and the exact days (e.g. Tue, Thu, Sat, Sun): the plan sticks to them.

I'm a beginner, is this plan for me?

The plan adapts to your declared level (beginner to semi-pro): starting volume, progression and intensity change. Endu also offers a "Discovery" mode without a race to build a base first.

Can I follow sessions on my watch?

Yes, on Garmin and COROS. On Garmin, the Endu app (Connect IQ Store) shows today’s session and starts it as a guided workout. On COROS, link your account from your profile: your running, trail and cycling sessions land in the watch calendar. Other brands are not supported yet.

How much does it cost?

14-day free trial, then €7.99/month with no commitment or €59.88/year (€4.99/month). Unlimited objectives and sports.

The 2026 course

Start and finish at Lake Saint-Ferréol. Swim: one 1,900 m loop in the lake, with an Australian exit. Bike: one 90 km loop on minor roads, often through forest. According to the 2026 GPX track published by the organisers, the road drops to Sorèze, then climbs the Côte de Sorèze (Croix de Montalric, timed) towards Arfons, above 700 m; it stays on the heights of the Montagne Noire, between 650 and 850 m, until around km 50, before a long descent and a rolling return to the lake; 1,530 m of climbing according to the 2026 race guide. Bike aid stations at km 21 and km 59. Run: four 5 km laps on soft, shaded ground around the lake, 120 m of climbing, with aid stations halfway, two-thirds of the way and at the end of each lap.

What the race asks of your training

Nearly 1,500 m of climbing in the Montagne Noire

The bike gets going early: the Côte de Sorèze, a category 3 climb on the 2025 Tour de France and timed during the race, climbs towards Arfons, then the road stays on the heights, through forest. Climbs of 20 to 40 minutes at or just below threshold, within your long rides, prepare you better than flat volume; the sample plan below is worth topping up with this climbing.

A 20 km run on soft ground

Four laps around the lake, on shaded paths, with 120 m of climbing. Long runs on trails and bricks of hilly riding followed by a steady run teach you to get going again after the climbs on the bike.

Water sometimes too warm for a wetsuit

The organisers expect water between 20 and 25 °C in mid-June: wetsuits are banned from 24.5 °C. A few long open-water swims without a wetsuit, and practice at getting out and diving back in for the Australian exit, avoid surprises. Swim caps are not provided: bring your own.

Few aid stations on the bike

In 2026 the L bike course had only two aid stations: drinks at km 21, food and drinks at km 59. For a mid-June race, practise drinking and eating while riding, uphill and downhill, and set off carrying enough to last until km 59.

Why this plan works

Science-based periodisation

Base → build → specific → taper, with a recovery week every 3 to 4 weeks. Load goes up, but never two hard weeks in a row without a breather.

Paces, not vague feelings

Every session has target zones (pace, HR) computed from your MAS or a reference performance. A MAS test is built into the plan if you don't know yours.

Three disciplines, one load

Swim, bike and run are planned together: brick sessions, key sessions spread out, and a coherent total load week after week.

A plan that listens

After each session you rate how it felt (RPE). Too hard? The plan eases what follows. Skipped a session? It reschedules or absorbs it.

“For triathlon, having all three sports in the same schedule really makes my life easier. I spend less time organising my training and I still enjoy following it just as much.”
Maxime · Triathlon
“At first I just wanted to try it. Now checking the next day’s session has become my little evening ritual 😊”
Sarah · Triathlon
“I used to spend more time looking for a plan than following one. Now I have my sessions, I know what to do and I stick to it. Really glad I tried it.”
Thomas · Running
“Training for my first half marathon and honestly, I’m getting into it! I even look at my next sessions ahead of time, when before I was mostly looking for an excuse not to go out 😂”
Camille · Running
“Simple to follow and really handy with the watch. I start my session and off I go.”
Julien · Running
“I took Endu to prepare a trail race with friends. I really like having my week already organised: it motivates me and I enjoy my runs more.”
Émilie · Trail
“What I like is no longer asking myself a thousand questions before going for a run. I follow the plan and I enjoy training.”
Nicolas · Trail
“With work and the kids, I thought I’d struggle to follow a plan. In the end, having a structure helps me a lot. Running has found a real place in my week again, and it feels good!”
Julie · Trail
“A good find to prepare my swimrun! It’s nice to find a plan for this sport. I’ve recommended it to my teammate.”
Antoine · Swimrun
“I run more regularly and, above all, with more desire. For that alone, I’m delighted.”
Laura · Swimrun
