She has also been highly successful at the Southeast Asian Games, where she has won gold medals on five occasions from 2005 to 2009.

Born in Ho Chi Minh City, Thanh Hang won a national title over 1500 metres in 2004 and began to represent her country internationally the following year, beginning with a sixth-place finish at the 2005 Asian Athletics Championships.
