WHAT KIND OF SHAPE DO I NEED TO BE IN?
This is a question the staff hears constantly in the months leading up to the Boot Camp. The good news is, you don't need to be race-ready at all. The camp is designed to start your season off right -- with a strong emphasis on technique and low intensity aerobic efforts. Many of our attendees are preparing for their first triathlon, while others are seasoned veterans striving for that "competitive edge".
Don’t be concerned about not being able to keep up. These are all NO DROP WORKOUTS. There will be plenty of others swimming, biking and running at your speed!
For the group rides and group runs, there will be cue sheets and maps, as well as ride leaders to be sure that everyone knows where they're going, regardless of what speed or distance you want to go. For the swim sessions, we will divide athletes into smaller groups and lanes based on ability.
Here's a sample of feedback we received from triathletes attending our Spring camps last year:
"Not only was the camp enjoyable, but the other attendees at the camp were such wonderful people…everyone was so positive and supportive. I made so many new friends that I will continue to stay in touch with and hopefully train with. In fact, some of us are already emailing each other and trying to get together for rides and runs." - Laura M.
"I've been meaning to write to thank you once again for a wonderful weekend. It was so great in so many ways. Your staff was amazing! I learned more that I could have anticipated. I will definitely send more people your way next year." - Lauren D.
