Lanzarote Triathlon Training Camp
Reflections From a Second Year of Lanzarote Training Camps
A few final thoughts on the flight back from the Lanzarote training camps.
The Last Day
Our last day of training in Lanzarote – a time trial up Tabayesco and another big swim.
Once More Round the Island
Another trip round the Ironman course plus a little extra to hit 200K for the day.
Taking it Easy (Again)
Another easy day and another short race to keep the athletes occupied.
Sheltering in the Bunch
More wind, a steep climb and then more wind.
Increasing the Load
We get the athletes working harder with some help from Lanzarote’s winds.
Begin Again – Week 2 in Lanzarote
Another week of training camp begins with a new group of athletes to put through their paces.
Week One Done
The final day of the first week of camp: going easy on the bike and hard in the pool.
Around Lanzarote by Bike or Car
The athletes take on the Ironman course in windy conditions while the coach follows from the comfort of a car.
Train Hard, Race Easy
Easy day is race day on camp – this time a team relay mini-triathlon with some dubious outfits and racing tactics.
