What is it really like on a training camp? Find out from Claire who has just booked her 3rd camp with us…
I have been attending the Challenge Tri camp for a couple of years now and have booked on for my 3rd camp in 2025. I’ve enjoyed it so much and recognise how good the training is, that I’ve even got my partner to sign up for his first camp next year!
I had been on a number of different camps prior to booking a Challenge Tri Camp in 2023 and was looking for a change in terms of training stimuli and location. I had been to Mallorca several times before so knew the cycling and swimming opportunities were great, but with the Challenge camp they are based at a hotel that I hadn’t used before, and one that has some top facilities, everything you could want from a training camp and with an ocean on the doorstep ready to swim in.
In terms of the training side of things, I feel that I have been pushed outside my comfort zone on both occasions, and have taken away some new learnings. And not forgetting the great people I have met through attending the camps – the coaches (Nick, Brent, Helen and DTS), and some great athletes of all abilities, and most of which I am still in touch with and have met up with at various events.
I would highly recommend the Challenge Tri Camps to anyone who is either new to triathlon and wanting to push themselves and learn more, or to someone who is looking to take their training to a new level, using top class training facilities and coaching techniques, and all in a great location.
