Gull Lake Triathlon Camp

HOSTED BY BOULDER COACHING AND CEO CHALLENGES

The perfect opportunity to get ready for your 2012 'A' race! 

The inaugural camp on Gull Lake in Michigan was such a huge success we are hosting it again in 2012.  This year it will be geared towards athletes that are looking for the ultimate in preparation for their big 'A' race in August, September, or later in the year.

Learn from the best - five-time world triathlon champion Simon Lessing and Olympic running coach Darren De Reuck of Boulder Coaching join CEO Challenges to offer an all-inclusive, first-class weekend to provide you with everything you need to have your greatest triathlon racing season ever!

The weekend includes plenty of time open-water swimming, biking, and running, plus instruction sessions on nutrition, training, transitions, and lots of opportunities to have your questions answered by the experts.

You will be treated to fabulous meals at an incredible, luxurious private residence on Gull Lake (sleeps 18!), while enjoying the quite roads in this beautiful part of Western Michigan.

And to top off the weekend - put your new found skills to use in a Sprint Triathlon Race on Sunday morning, complete with bragging rights, and awards to the best in each group.

The cost for the camp is $2,300 per person, which includes all training sessions, all meals and beverages, instruction, sag support for rides, custom cycling gear (jacket, jersey, and shorts), and accommodations from Thursday - Sunday.
