Triathlon Training Camp - 2023

Triathlon Training Camp 

Do you have some triathlon goals for this year but feeling over whelmed by how much there is to learn?

Are you new to the sport and super excited with your training but feel like you need some help developing all the skills and fitness needed to reach your goals?

Do you have hundreds of questions but don’t know who to ask or who to listen to?

A Triathlon Training Camp could be just what you need to give your training a boost.

This is 3 days of sessions with a professional coach to help you learn everything you need to be successful in triathlon.

As well as all of the coached sessions it’ll be your chance to get all your questions answered and meet other like minded people.

What is a training camp?

A training camp is the opportunity to spend 3 days purely focussed on triathlon training and nothing else! It gives you the chance to learn some skills and do some training without being distracted by work and family.

The Training Camp will include multiple sessions a day to make the most of your time and having access to a coach.

This training camp will be mainly focussed on technique and skills so while there will be multiple sessions a day we won’t be working you until you drop.

This Training Camp will be run in a small group of only 3 people so you get lots of individual attention and coaching.

When and Where is it?

It takes place Wed 17th May to Friday 19th May

The training camp will be based from my swimming pool at YouCanCoaching just outside of Kenilworth.

The full address is 10th Street, Stoneleigh Park, Kenilworth, CV8 2LG

What will we be doing? 

I’ll be teaching you good swimming technique in the swimming pool each day which will include video analysis above and below the water.

There will also have the chance to take these skills into open water with an adventure in the River Avon. This will give you the chance to learn about swimming in a wetsuit as well as skills such as swimming straight and open water siting.

Run sessions will be focussed on good running technique and will also include video analysis as well as drills and exercises to help you avoid injury and run more efficiently.

I’ll introduce you to the Warwickshire country side for some nice bike rides where we’ll look at using gears, cornering, riding hills and staying safe in traffic.

Who’s it for?

This triathlon training camp is aimed at people relatively new to triathlon who want to learn new skills and get fitter

It’s for adults who have already done some swimming, cycling and running.
