The Half Distance Triathlon in Da Nang, Vietnam, is more than a race — it’s a journey through tropical beauty, technical terrain, and personal discovery. Our Six-Month Intermediate Training Plan is designed to help you arrive at the start line prepared, confident, and fully equipped to crush your goals.
.
🏊 Swim: Begin your race with a rolling start into the warm 81.7°F (28°C) waters, navigating a 1.9km swim at the edge of the waves. Our plan incorporates targeted open-water swim sessions that condition you to manage current, pacing, and positioning — skills essential for success in Da Nang’s coastal surf.
.
🚴 Bike: Ride 90km from Son Thuy beach past iconic bridges and along the stunning Nguyen Tat Thanh M-loop. This course blends flat speed with climbing challenges, and our plan prepares you with structured intervals, long rides, and brick workouts that mimic race conditions, sharpening both power and endurance.
.
🏃 Run: The final 21.1km unfolds along Da Nang’s scenic Truong Sa Beach with an average temperature of 82.6°F (28°C). Our program integrates tempo runs, V02 max intervals, and heat adaptation strategies to help you stay strong, steady, and focused — even in the final stretch.

💪 Why This Plan Works
Before beginning, we recommend a solid base from Olympic-distance triathlon experience. This plan starts at 8 hours of training per week, building to 12 hours with a carefully balanced mix of endurance, intensity, and recovery. Each session is strategically placed to maximize adaptation and minimize burnout. From anaerobic threshold sessions to progressive brick workouts, every element is engineered for performance on race day.

🔥 Train Smarter, Not Just Harder
