Just a short 2.5hr flight from the UK, Mallorca has everything our athlete guests need for the perfect training holiday, great weather, fantastic terrain, beautiful and safe swim locations and the Challenge Tri Camp coaches to help you in your journey.

Designed for both new and experienced triathletes who want to come and get a varied week of swim, bike and run training with not one specific goal race or distance in mind.  You might be looking to take on your first race or be doing a range of races and want to come to Mallorca to improve your fitness and triathlon skill level while having fun with like-minded people.

This 7 night camp is based from our 4* sports hotel in Playa De Muro, Mallorca, with half board meal plan. The hotel is just steps away from the warm mediterranean sea and offers an on-site 25m lane pool for swim training, a fully equipped gym, secure bike garage and luxury spa with hot and cold therapies, as well as two pools for relaxing after a hard days training.

Swim: During the week you will work on your open water technique and endurance during our open water sea swim sessions and also in the on-site 25metre lane pool where you will be coached on drills, technique, endurance and stamina. It is mandatory for athletes to wear a wetsuit when open water swimming with us to comply with our insurance requirements.

Bike: All athletes are assessed on Day 1 to establish riding strengths and skills and grouped accordingly. Rides are varied by terrain and distance, rolling flats and mountain rides from 50k to 100k. We operate a no-drop policy so no athlete gets left behind.

Run: Brick runs, drills and technique work, and tempo runs are guided by our coaches. These sessions can be either road or off road and are suitable for all athletes.

Strength and Core: Most days finish with a strength or core session to complete your training day. These sessions are designed to complement the training effect for the day.

Coaching: Challenge Tri Camp provide a high coach to athlete training ratio with the opportunity for one to one sessions to work on your individual requirements.

Camp Schedule: Athletes can expect a full range of coached activities throughout the week with a specific schedule that builds in intensity and also allows for a half day rest period to avoid over training.
