Plan Description

Conquer the Half Distance Triathlon in Da Nang, Vietnam with a Proven 36-Week Training Plan

Get ready to take on the Half Distance Triathlon in Da Nang, Vietnam—a race that’s as visually stunning as it is physically demanding. With a warm-water ocean swim, a scenic but challenging coastal bike course, and a fast run along Truong Sa Beach, this event offers everything a competitive Masters athlete craves.

Why This 36-Week Plan Is Built for Success in Da Nang
This expertly designed training plan prepares you for every element of the race:

🏊 Swim – 1.9km Warm-Water Ocean Start
The plan includes progressive open-water swim sets, sighting drills, and pacing work tailored to Da Nang’s 81.7°F (28°C) conditions. Master the rolling start and build confidence in variable surf.

🚴 Bike – 90km Coastal & Urban Challenge
Train for climbs, sustained flats, and bridges with heart rate and power-based intervals. Simulate the Nguyen Tat Thanh M-loop and technical transitions to ride strong from Son Thuy Beach to the final mile.

🏃 Run – 21.1km Along Truong Sa Beach
Dial in race-day speed with tempo efforts, race-pace long runs, and heat acclimation strategies to thrive in Da Nang’s 82.6°F (28°C) air temperature. You’ll build the strength to surge through the finish.
