Plan Description

Ready to take on the breathtaking Half Distance Triathlon in Kenting, Taiwan? This beginner-friendly six-month Half Distance Triathlon training plan is built to guide you to the finish line—whether you're gliding through the turquoise waters of Little Bay or running past the lush trails of Sheding Natural Park.

🏊 Swim – 1.9KM in Little Bay:
You’ll train for race-day success with technique-focused pool workouts and open-water swim preparation. Learn sighting, pacing, and breathing control to handle the ‘M-shaped’ ocean swim confidently and efficiently.

🚴 Bike – 90KM Coastal Ride:
Prepare for the flat, fast ride along Provincial Highway 26 with structured endurance rides and targeted intervals based on heart rate and perceived effort. You’ll be ready to maintain speed past Baisha and the National Museum of Marine Biology & Aquarium, while staying strong throughout the looped course.

🏃 Run – 21.1KM Scenic Challenge:
Tackle the final leg with confidence thanks to a mix of tempo runs, bricks, and endurance workouts that mimic the race course’s terrain. You’ll build mental toughness and physical stamina for the hilly path through Heping Lane and Sheding Natural Park.

💥 Why This Half Distance Triathlon Plan Works for Beginners:
✅ Base Training Requirement: Before starting this plan, you should have at least 4–6 weeks of consistent aerobic base training—this includes being able to comfortably swim 1000m, bike for 60 minutes, and run for 45 minutes without stopping.
✅ Progressive Training: Gradual build-up introduces VO2 max and threshold workouts without overwhelming your body.
✅ Holistic Approach: Combines strength training, mobility, swim drills, and race-specific endurance.
✅ Structured Sessions: Clear workouts based on Heart Rate and RPE to prevent overtraining.
✅ Video Guidance: Includes swim drills and strength videos to ensure proper form.
✅ Coach Support: Personalized email support from an experienced coach to help you stay on track.
