For those interested, Gordo Byrn is heading up training camps in Tucson, AZ and Boulder, CO in 2009.
The Tucson camp is bit more training & cycling focused, geared for those interested in some "Big Training Days". Th camp has been slotted for the week of March 29th to April 5th (Sunday to Sunday, Training from Monday to Saturday).
Generally two groups form during each cycling session: elites and competitive age groupers and a slower group (< 13 hour IM types or those interested in an easier day).The 2009 camp will include rides to Madera Canyon, Kitt Peak, Mt Lemmon, Gates Pass and more of the surrounding Tucson areas. There will also be oppurtunities to ride and swim every day throughout the camp. Swim ability is spread across the spectrum, from 50 min to 1:20 minute IM swimmers. Many folks posted lifetime best swim volume last year during the camp.
Wheels on Wheels (www.wheelsonwheels.com) will be assisting us again and making sure your bike is cleaned every day. Your only bike maintenance duties will be filling your watter bottles each morning. They will take care of the rest.
Camp Tuition is 2350.00 and covers all accomodations (Hotel Arizona), meals, and training support from March 29th to April 5th. A 500.00 deposit secures your spot until January 1, 2009.
To reserve your spot please email Kelly: admin at endurancecorner dot com.

Boulder is appropriate for ALL ability levels and ALL distances.
July 20-25, 2009 (inclusive, six days)
+++
Basic Daily Structure will be...
First session will have an instructional angle, examples (open water, swim technique, running technique/form)
Then we will have a second session that will be endurance in nature -- different choices based on ability/race distance.
Lunch and early afternoon will be unscheduled most days. So athletes can train more, rest, eat, or attend to personal items. Your call with how you play it.
Mid afternoon, we will get together again for a presentation/talk on a topic of interest - examples include... training & race nutrition, building your Basic Week, basic exercise physiology, training & racing with power.
Then dinner with informal Q&A.
We will aim to be done around 7:30pm each day. We will start between 6am and 7am each day.
+++
Speakers/Guests/Coaches that we have scheduled include:
Dave Scott
Joe Friel
Bobby McGee
Greg & Laura Bennett
Gordo & Monica Byrn
Alan Couzens
Justin Daerr
+++
Cost ($1,250) will include dinner each night, all training fees, training nutrition, coaching, schwag bag and sag/support on all workouts.
Athletes will sort their own breakfast, lunch, transfers and accommodation.
Boulder Peak Triathlon is scheduled for July 19th -- so you will want to book hotels early. Experienced athletes may consider racing the day before camp starts.
Most training sessions will start in North Boulder. You want easy hotel access to the Iris & Broadway part of town.
Feel free to post questions here and I will reply.
