Triathlon training camp specialist Tri Dynamic has released details of its latest collaboration with Elite Dsquad Coach Darren Smith and his Dsquad Elites. Following on from successful tri camps for age groupers with Darren Smith in Canberra, London & Morzine – San Diego, is next up on the tri camp destination list.
Back where it all started and the birthplace of triathlon, San Diego is seen as a perfect location for this camp where age group athletes will get to see what it takes to be the best in the business.
Darren Smith and his Dsquad Elites will be based in San Diego preparing for the 2015 race season. The San Diego Dsquad AG Tri Camp will take place at the Brian Bent Memorial Aquatic Complex (BBMAC) in Coronado, San Diego, from Friday 6 February to Monday 9 February 2015.
Places will be strictly limited to just 15 athletes who will spend 4 packed days in San Diego learning from Elite Coach Darren Smith, his athletes and his world class support team. The camp participants will not only be mentored in all three sports by one of the most successful triathlon coaches in the world but will also benefit from watching how he coaches his Elite Dsquad training every day and even get to join in on some key sessions with his Olympic and World medallists.
This is the only Age Group triathlon camp Darren Smith will run in the US in 2015 and is seen as a fantastic opportunity to make some massive improvements in a short timeframe by working closely with one of the most successful triathlon coaches across all distances and formats.
Whether athletes are chasing a qualification slot at Kona or looking to improve technique and get a new PR this is seen as a unique opportunity to improve triathlon performance early in 2015.
Participating athletes on the camp will get the chance to live and train like a pro and be coached by the coach to several of the best triathletes in the world. These include: Commonwealth Champion Jodie Stimpson, 4 x World Champion & Olympic Silver Medallist Lisa Norden and multiple ITU World Triathlon Series medallist and Olympian Aileen Reid.
Smith coached US triathletes Sarah Groff to fourth at the London Olympics and Matt Chrabot to IM 70.3 Austin and US National ITU titles in 2013. In non-drafting triathlon he has coached Hy-Vee Champions in Lisa Norden and Emma Moffatt. Darren Smith also coached Bart Aernouts to 11th at Kona on his IM debut in 2012 with the fastest run split and Annabel Luxford to 3rd at the 70.3 World Champs in 2013.
He has also helped coach Chris ‘Macca’ McCormack to his 2012 Kona victory and advised 2014 IM European Frankfurt Champ Corinne Abraham on improving her swimming.
For those unable to attend the camp, earlier this year, Tri Dynamic launched a new Video Guides section on its website featuring a series of exclusive video technique guides with Darren Smith. There are swim, run and core technique video guides where Coach Daz takes athletes through exactly how he coaches his stellar Dsquad Elite athletes.
