Plan Description
The Half Distance Triathlon Kenting Taiwan is more than just a race—it’s an unforgettable challenge set against one of Asia’s most stunning coastal backdrops. From the crystal-clear swim at Little Bay to the fast coastal ride and the rugged beauty of Sheding Natural Park, this race demands strength, endurance, and precision pacing.
Our Six-Month Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is built to meet those demands—but it requires a solid foundation first.
🚨 Base Training Requirement:
To begin this plan, you should already be training consistently for at least 6–8 weeks with a weekly volume of 6–8 hours, including 90min rides, runs over 75 minutes, and 2–3 swims per week. This ensures your body is prepared for the progressive workload ahead.
Once your base is in place, this plan will elevate your performance across all three disciplines:
✅ Swim-Specific Endurance Workouts
Master the 1.9KM M-shaped course with workouts designed to improve open-water stamina, sighting, and speed control in variable conditions.
✅ Bike Strength & Speed Development
Kenting’s flat yet windy 90KM route along Provincial Highway 26 requires both power and resilience. This plan includes long endurance rides, V02 max intervals, and threshold sessions to prepare you for sustained efforts.
✅ Race-Ready Run Preparation
The 21.1KM run features tropical heat and rolling terrain through Heping Lane and Sheding Natural Park. Our anaerobic threshold and hill-strength workouts simulate these race-day demands to help you finish strong.
✅ Brick Sessions for Seamless Transitions
Targeted bike-to-run workouts prepare your legs and mind to adapt quickly on race day—vital for a successful Half Distance Triathlon performance.
✅ Smart Weekly Progression
Volume builds gradually from 9.5 to 14 hours per week over six months, with strategic recovery weeks to prevent burnout and maximize gains.
