Start building your fitness and momentum for the 2007 season by attending a winter training camp. Join Coach Troy and coaches from the Triathlon Academy and Spinervals Cycling for either a 4 or 7-day training camp in the high desert region of Tucson, Arizona! Spend four or seven days training in the heat amongst the saguaros (cactus) along the majestic Catalina Mountain range and listening to guest speakers discuss the finer points of training and racing. Start getting in great shape for the new season! The camp is intended for triathletes who want to work on their endurance base, shed some winter pounds and to start gaining some momentum going into the new season. Perfect for athletes from colder climates, this early March training camp comes at the perfect time to kick off your pre- season training for 2007! Coach Troy has been holding camps around the U.S. since 1995. 2007 will be our fifth consecutive season conducting this fantastic winter training camp in Arizona. Come join us for a most satisfying and effective training camp experience.
This camp is open to triathletes and cyclists of all levels. Just come to
camp with a solid fitness base and the desire to work hard and have fun.
Triathletes will focus on doing all three sports with the emphasis on
cycling. Cyclists will do a bit more cycling than the triathletes and are
certainly invited to join the triathletes for runs and swims!
