Lake Placid Ironman USA Camp
"Train with the champions on the IM USA Lake Placid course"
June 6-8, 2008 (Friday to Sunday, 7-weeks prior to race day)
Paula Newby-Fraser with 5-time Ironman USA Lake Placid Champion, Heather Fuhr at the finish line of the 2005 event.
Spend a long weekend training with Ironman World Champions Paula Newby-Fraser, Heather Fuhr and our other coaches on the Ironman Lake Placid race course. Between (and during) workouts we will teach you what you need to know to excel at Ironman Lake Placid.
This camp is 7 weeks before the race, just in time for your final Ironman Specific Training. Do you know how you should be training? We've coached Peter Reid, Michellie Jones, Chris Legh, Luke Bell and many more, and we personaly coach you too.
This is your chance to get first hand advice from great athletes like Ironman World Champions Heather Fuhr and Paula Newby-Fraser.
If you are considering your first Ironman, or you are an Iron veteran, this camp offers you something. Not only do we coach champions, we have lots of experience coaching iron newbies preparing for their first race and experienced middle-of-the pack age-groupers looking to improve their performance
Our all-star coaches train with you- Where else can you ride on an Ironman World Champion's wheel for 5 hours?
Our coaches hang with you between lectures and workouts, and welcome your questions and happily dispense their own personal advice. Have you ever wondered what Paula Newby-Fraser's opinion was on a topic? This is your chance to ask!
This may be a group camp, but we have so many coaches at the camp you receive as much one on one coaching as you can handle.
We have a bicycle mechanic at the camp to assemble your bicycle and help with any cycling gear issues and will help fit your bike.
This is a busy schedule, so we provide all the meals you'll need, AND we provide hydration and nutrition during all the workouts and a support vehicle for the bike and run workouts.
We coach you through several Ironman Specific workouts
(don't worry, we provide a range of workouts if you need less or more.)
- 3000-5000 yard pool workout
- 5 hour bike ride on the race course followed by a 20-45 minute transition run
- 2 hour run on the race course
- Open water swim on the race course (conditions permitting)
- Walk you through the actual transitions
Between workouts we offer lectures on:
- Race Course & Venue Familiarization
- Nutrition for both training and race day
- Open Water Swimming
- Planning your training up to race day (including Heart Rates the the all important taper)
- Changing a Flat Tire with no more tears (there’s no crying in triathlon)
- Going Mental - how to train your mind to help you during the race
We have lots of demo gear for you to try
We give away lots of cool stuff including raffles for some pretty expensive gear like Oakley eye wear, Tri-All-3 bike cases, X-Terra Wetsuits, Profile Aerobars and Speedplay Pedals
