The Half Distance Triathlon in Kenting, Taiwan demands more than general fitness—it requires precise preparation. With a technical 1.9KM open-water swim, a flat yet wind-exposed 90KM bike course, and a hilly 21.1KM run through Sheding Natural Park, it’s a course that rewards well-structured training and execution. This 36-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan is engineered for competitive Masters athletes aged 40+, combining endurance science with practical scheduling.
📊 How This Plan Prepares You for Kenting’s Demands
✅ Swim Efficiency for Open Water Conditions
The ‘M-shaped’ swim in Little Bay requires technical awareness and pacing control. This plan integrates interval-based pool sessions, open-water simulations, and video-supported drills to refine stroke mechanics and improve sighting.
✅ Bike Power for Long, Flat Terrain
