The Half Distance Triathlon in Phu Quoc offers a unique challenge: a 1.9 km swim starting at Three Coconut Tree Beach, a flat yet demanding 90 km two-lap bike course through stunning coastal landscapes, and a 21.1 km run along shaded roads and the island’s most scenic seaside route. For the senior athlete, this race is as much about smart preparation as it is about endurance.

Our 36-Week Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of triathletes aged 60 and above. It balances the demands of training with respect for your body’s need for recovery, helping you prepare fully and safely for race day.

✅ Rebuild and Sustain Endurance
A 12-week base phase gently restores cardiovascular fitness and muscular endurance, providing a strong foundation for the swim, bike, and run demands unique to the Half Distance Triathlon.

✅ Preserve Strength and Mobility
Incorporated resistance training supports bone health and muscle mass, key to maintaining power and preventing injury as you prepare for long hours on your feet and bike.

✅ Periodized Training for Lasting Progress
With a strategic 2:1 work-to-recovery ratio, the plan fosters steady improvement without risking burnout—vital for sustainable training at any age.

✅ Race-Specific Intensity and Skill
Targeted interval and threshold workouts build speed and pacing skills needed to tackle the rolling swim start, fast bike course, and sustained seaside run with confidence.

✅ Focused Transition and Neuromuscular Training
Brick workouts improve your ability to switch smoothly between disciplines, helping you save precious energy during the race.

✅ Practical Swim Technique Support
Video-guided swim drills enhance your stroke efficiency and open-water comfort, critical for the anticlockwise triangle swim course.

This plan respects your time and recovery needs, progressing from about 7.5 to 12 hours per week, ensuring you train smart, not just hard.

With personalized email coaching support included, you’ll receive expert guidance tailored to your progress—because your experience deserves individual attention.
