Plan Description
Tackle the Half Distance Triathlon in Phu Quoc, Vietnam with a training plan specifically designed for the course’s unique challenges—warm tropical waters, a flat yet scenic bike course, and a seaside run that demands both endurance and strategy. This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan prepares you to thrive on race day from the first stroke to the final step across the finish line at Shell Square.
✅ Base Training for Endurance & Strength
Your journey starts with a focused 12-week base phase that lays the groundwork for long-term success. You'll build aerobic endurance to handle the warm, open-water swim off Three Coconut Tree Beach and begin targeted strength training to improve power and efficiency across all disciplines.
✅ Race-Specific Swim Prep
From Weeks 1–12, you'll develop swim-specific strength and refine open water technique to confidently navigate the triangular, anti-clockwise swim course. With guided drills and form-focused sessions, you'll be ready for a strong beach exit into T1.
✅ Bike Power for Flat Fast Racing
The two-lap, 90km bike course in Phu Quoc is fast, flat, and visually stunning—ideal for steady pacing. Our structured bike intervals focus on power and cadence control, so you can hold an efficient tempo throughout while managing nutrition in the tropical heat.
✅ Heat-Adapted Run Conditioning
The 21.1km run is coastal, sunny, and flat, with two loops through shady internal roads and breathtaking seaside views. We prepare you with brick workouts, tempo runs, and endurance intervals that simulate race conditions—so you can finish strong and composed with friends and family cheering you home.
✅ Peak Performance Programming
The final phase ramps you up to 12.5 hours per week, combining endurance, VO2 max training, threshold sessions, and race simulations. You'll taper at just the right time to arrive in Phu Quoc rested, ready, and race-fit.
✅ Coaching Support When You Need It
Included in your plan is personalized email coach support, giving you expert guidance whenever you need a boost, clarification, or a confidence check.
