World Class Triathlon Coach launches the Triathlete's Dream Training Camp


Source: Editor

For years, one very special coach has been quietly guiding some of the world's best endurance athletes to achieve great things. Since 1995, Coach Gareth Thomas, originally from Great Britain and now resident in the USA, has coached and advised world & national champions in Triathlon, Duathlon, Road Racing & Mountain Biking as well as helped hundreds of age group athletes achieve their multisport goals.

Now Coach Gareth is launching a number of unique, European training vacations for Triathletes of all abilities who wish to combine the holiday of a lifetime with a world-class training experience.

Tri-Girona.com is the perfect training camp destination. Girona in Spain is the training ground of Tour de France Cycling Legends and the heart of European Triathlon. The local facilities are world class with many Olympic athletes living in the area. For Triathlete's this means excellent long course outdoor swimming pools, beautiful roads through quiet medieval towns & the Pyrenees for riding, first class tracks and trails for running. Add to that a pristine lake for open water swimming that was the host venue for the Barcelona Olympic rowing events.

Coach Gareth says "I want people to be able to immerse themselves in the sport they love, while taking a first class vacation at the same time. For some, it's a chance to train like a pro away from distraction, for others the perfect vacation that allows for relaxation and regeneration while also improving their fitness".

So what makes the TRI-Girona experience unique?

Firstly, all camps are fully inclusive of all food, drinks, accommodation, coaching and transport including flights - there are no hidden costs. Furthermore, with his unique understanding of Blood Lactate and it's role for endurance athletes, Coach Gareth has built in lactate testing for all camp attendees at no extra charge.

You can also custom build your camp to suit your needs and wishes. Choose from 10 or 14 days, include a fantastic local Triathlon race if you wish at no extra charge, train as much or a little as you want. Each camp includes regular massages, mechanic and SAG support. With 2 coaches and a soigneur in attendance and a limit of just 12 athletes, it's VIP personal service all the way. Each athlete also gets a custom 12 week pre-camp training program.

There are two camps in 2007. In May the "Peak Performance Camp" includes an Olympic Distance race and designed as a high volume training camp to launch you in to your 2007 season. In September the "Half Ironman camp" is an ideal ironman preparation camp or destination race camp for the Banyoles Half Ironman race. Coach Gareth points out that "regardless of your ability & how much you want to train, either camp will leave you refreshed and fitter than ever."
