Learn to Tri Smarter Triathlon Camp with Joe Beer & Team

20 Sep 2013 to 27 Sep 2013

Once aigain Club La Santa, CoachJoeBeer.com and SwimForTri link up to provide a structured training week aimed at beginners and intermediate level triathletes looking to find clear, concise and helpfull coaching. This provides the perfect jump up the learning curve in a sport many take 5 years or more to be successful.

This is the camp to understand how to plan a winters training and be ready for next spring – from swimming technique and bike fit to run training and nutrition

We will use the 50-metre outdoor pool, excellent quiet roads, newly surfaced track and off road runs that cover different surfaces and terrain.

Training

The sessions are perfect for athletes from beginner to intermediate levels and the aim is to mix practical workouts with talks and workshops. Athletes from single sports who have a few years endurance experience will find it manageable and great fun.

The camp would not be suitable for very high level or experienced triathletes.

Camp Registration and travel arrangements

The camp is restricted to guests staying at Club La Santa during the event. Pre-registration is required as we have a limited number of participants.

The price for the week is 210 euros including all training and coaching, an event t-shirt and an end of camp dinner. The payment for the camp will take place in the welcome meeting upon arrival in Club La Santa.
