Early Season Tri CAMP - Spain
We have teamed up with a very friendly, comfortable hotel to put on this Early Season Triathlon CAMP based near to the Costa Brava. This picturesque region allows for some early season preparation in a warm and sunny climate. Based right on the Mediterranean, only 50 minutes from Barcelona, this location has it all, from marked out open water swim courses, to miles of running trails and some excellent riding on quiet roads with a climb or two thrown in. The hotel also boasts a 50 m outdoor training pool as well as use of Spa and Gym complex
The groups are made up of single athletes, couples and groups of friends. By the end of the first day everyone has gelled together and the training flows perfectly. We hold fun competitions during the week to test yourself and to see how you fair against others on your camp or previous camps but again this is fun so there is absolutely no pressure from anyone.

Itinerary - Example
Airport Transfer from Barcelona
We will pick you up from Barcelona airport and transfer you back to the hotel in Calella. After settling into your room you can build up the bike. We will take you around the complex to show you the pool and spa areas.
We will take a walk to the coastal path for a small run session - this allows everyone to get their bearings and shake out the legs after the flight.
Sunday
Each morning we will have an early swim session. We start at 8 am in the 50 m pool located next to the hotel. There will be a couple of schedules to choose from and stroke technique can be checked.
We will head out on the bikes after breakfast to get a taste of the Spanish countryside (Routes will be published soon).
A steady transition run along the trails will put you in the mood for an excellent meal in the evening.
Monday
Pool session in the morning before breakfast, which is from 9 am to 10:30 each day. We will head in the opposite direction today to get in some more of the fantastic riding in this region.
In the afternoon we will head to the beach for some open water practice and some transition training. A short run to loosen the legs is always a good way to finish the day.
Tuesday
Swim session again this morning - we will put in some warm up sets before tackling a TT set.
Long bike today taking in one of the larger climbs of the area - vehicle support all the way.
Short transition run before relaxing for the evening.
Wednesday - Fun Tri
This morning you can have a lie in. We have our mini sprint triathlon today. A short swim in the sea with a fast flat ride, finishing with the run along the coastal path. This is for fun and you get to practice your transitions with no pressure of race day on your back
Thursday
It has been a while since the last swim session so we will take it easy and concentrate on technique.
Another great ride today taking in some of the Barcelona Iron Distance race course.
For the run today we will collect your watches - it is time for the 5 km / 10 km prediction run. Always good fun.
Friday - Airport Transfer
Final swim session of the week. Some fun relays to end of a great week.
We will then head out to the Airport after breakfast
