Triathlon Training Camp

Why Triathlon Training Camps are Incredibly Valuable 

Triathlon training camps are incredibly valuable for triathletes of all levels. They are often a priceless piece of the puzzle as athletes work to become prepared for their key race(s).

However, not all camps are created equal.

Below we will examine what you can expect at a triathlon training camp, the differences between camps and other factors to consider when deciding which one you should attend.

Not All Are Created Equal

Each triathlon training camp is often unique and may have different overall objectives and expectations of its campers. Some training camps may be focused on intensity, others on volume, and still others on technique. Further more, there are also camps that may have a disproportionate emphasis on a particular discipline. For example, swimming or cycling. Sometimes camp variations are due to the time of year or where the camp is being help.

For example, our Florida Training Camp takes place in the winter and one of the best parts of camp is swimming in an outdoor 50 meter pool when it's not possible to do so at home. Or perhaps a camp that takes place in Mallorca, Spain may have a heavy focus on cycling.

Sometimes training camps will take place at a popular race venue with the majority of training done on course in advance of race day. Being able to preview a race course prior to the actual event can be a HUGE ADVANTAGE. A good example of this is our popular Lake Placid triathlon training camps.

​Regardless of what YOU are trying to accomplish at a camp, you will definitely want to make sure those in charge are experienced in hosting a well organized and safe experience.

Needless to say, triathlon training camps are the perfect opportunity for a focused training block to boost fitness & confidence without distractions. Additionally, training along side others and with the presence of coaches often make camps educational, motivating and fun.

At RTA triathlon training camps, athletes will dial in their race nutrition, pacing, climbing, descending, gearing, open water swim and other skills to help ensure success on race day.

Most importantly, while you should expect to do a lot of work at camp, you should also expect to have fun, make new friends and create memories

​At RTA training camps we definitely do a significant amount of training and stick to a tight schedule. However, we want to make sure that everyone has fun and leaves feeling good about what they have accomplished.
