Tri Dynamic Lanzarote Tri Camp with Jim Vance

Tri Dynamic has teamed up once again with top US TrainingBible Coach and former 8.37 IM Pro Jim Vance to offer a tri training camp in Lanzarote from 8-15 September. Jim Vance is a USA Triathlon (USAT) Level 2 Certified Coach, elite triathlete and a two-time Amateur World Champion in ITU and XTERRA. Jim is also the USAT National Elite Duathlon Coach for the World Championships.

Tri Dynamic is looking forward to working with Jim again after organising camps with him and coaching legend Joe Friel in 2011, including the Official Training Camp of Ironman Switzerland.

The camp will be based at Tri-Sports Lanzarote, where pro triathletes Eimear Mullan and Tamsin Lewis trained pre-season before going on to place 1st & 2nd at TriStar Mallorca recently. The camp is perfectly timed for athletes looking to benefit from world class coaching and to get in a key week of warm weather training in preparation for late season races. The camp will have limited numbers so each participant will receive individual coaching and analysis from Jim Vance.

Being 8 weeks out from the new Lanzarote mid distance race in November and 4 weeks out from Kona this camp offers race specificity to athletes’ training including acclimatising to the heat, wind and hills and to check out the Lanzarote course.

Lanzarote has long been popular with triathletes – elite and age groupers alike – due to year round warm temperatures, great open water swimming and quiet cycling friendly roads. Athletes of all abilities from Sprint to Iron distance and duathletes are all welcome on the camp and will benefit from expert individual coaching by Jim Vance.

The bike routes are some of the most breathtaking in the world, with expert guides with local knowledge and bike routes that cater to all abilities. There are run routes to suit all requirements with varied distances and terrain. The sea at nearby Puerto Del Carmen is a short 5K ride or transfer away.

Every evening there will be valuable classroom/Q&A sessions with Jim Vance covering key training topics and to review video analysis from the day’s activities. The camp accommodation at Tri-Sports Lanzarote is a newly renovated villa perfect for relaxing after a hard days training with friendly and comfortable surroundings, large chill-out comfortable lounge and seating areas for relaxing and free Wi-Fi and UK TV.

There is also a gym, onsite heated 25m pool and bike mechanic area with an onsite mechanic to assemble bikes. All this plus breakfasts, lunches and snacks and 5 nights’ dinners included, athletes can simply focus on enjoying training and relaxing. Transfers from Lanzarote Arrecife Airport (ACE) are also included in the price. Further details are available on the Tri Dynamic site.
