We now have 2 separate spring camps! Choose the date that works best for you!!
**Session 1 will participate in the Tour De Cookie instead of a race**
**Session 2 will contain a 7race in the camp schedule**
Our beginner friendly tri camp is the perfect getaway from the cold winter months and a great way to start your season off right! (or kick your butt into shape)
​
The camp fee will cover coaching for the week, tons of swag giveaways, bike fits, seminars, team activities, and much more! We welcome ALL levels to our Tucson camp. This camp is for building aerobic capacity on the bike, and improving efficiency in your swim and run. We will break all workouts into groups so don't worry if the winter gets to you and you are behind on your training. You will leave this camp a better athlete, regardless of what level you arrive at.
NEW FOR 2025! - the Session 2 camp fee INCLUDES an entry into the Oro Valley Triathlon!
