Plan Description

Crush the Half Distance Triathlon in Da Nang, Vietnam — Your Journey Starts Here

Racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Da Nang is more than just a goal — it's an adventure that tests your limits and rewards your commitment. With its warm coastal waters, sweeping bike course along iconic bridges, and a scenic run on the shoreline of Truong Sa Beach, Da Nang offers one of the most unforgettable triathlon race experiences in Southeast Asia.

To get there strong, confident, and race-ready, you need a plan built for success. That’s where our 36-Week Beginner Training Plan for Half Distance Triathlon comes in.

Why This Plan Works for Da Nang
Da Nang's 1.9km ocean swim kicks off with a rolling start, perfect for first-timers. Our plan gets you ready with swim drills and video-based technique training that focus on open-water confidence and efficiency — essential in 81.7°F (28°C) saltwater conditions.

The 90km bike course is flat-to-rolling with bridge crossings and long open stretches. That’s why we train you progressively from 7 to 12 hours per week, with specific bike sessions targeting endurance, pacing, and terrain management. Expect structured rides based on heart rate or perceived effort so you can conquer the Nguyen Tat Thanh M-loop with power and control.

On race day, the 21.1km coastal run can feel deceptively challenging in the tropical air. Our run-focused blocks integrate tempo sessions, race-day simulations, and progressive long runs to ensure you arrive strong and steady — not just surviving, but thriving.

Built for Beginners — Designed for Victory
Even if you’re brand new to triathlon, this plan meets you where you are. You’ll start with a 12-week base-building phase to establish fitness, develop discipline-specific skills, and build resilience. Then, over 24 weeks of focused Half Distance Triathlon training, you’ll stack bricks, sharpen race-day strategies, and gain confidence with every session.

You’ll also benefit from strength training with detailed video guides, perfect for developing injury resistance and efficiency — no guesswork, no fluff.

The finish line in Da Nang is calling — are you ready to answer?

Let this be the season you train smart, stay consistent, and race with purpose.
