Quick Facts

Location: Traveler’s Rest, SC.

Type of camp: Triathlon camp

Length of camp: 3 days

Dates: April 25th - 27th, 2025

The focus of this early season camp is to feel yourself getting stronger, fitter, more skilled and confident before your early season triathlon races. With a good mix of training stress and education, you will be able to develop new skills and techniques throughout camp, while also accumulating a good amount of training stress. As with all our camps, this early season camp will have a heavy emphasis on swimming technique and cycling, specifically skills and terrain management. To meet the criteria for this camp, you should have enough endurance to ride your bike for at least 2 hours on hilly terrain, you can train for at least 3 hours a day (total) for the duration of your camp (two or three workouts a day) and should arrive to camp with at least 6 months of consistent training (and fitness). Your health is important to us, thus the criteria. We never want any athlete to feel left out so if you feel this camp is not for you, we do offer private camps to meet your individual needs. Please reach out and we can discuss some options for you.

By attending this camp, you can expect to complete a lot of quality training sessions and to learn a lot. With three packed days of training, we will focus on your skills, technique, form, pacing, sport nutrition and mental strength so that you can apply everything that you learned throughout camp to your upcoming training sessions and events.

Our camp offers full SAG support, all-day access to your experienced triathlon coaches, pre-planned training routes, guidelines for sport nutrition for every workout, indoor pool swimming, hilly bike courses (rollers and mountains), hill running and lots of laughs, fun and memorable moments. We invite you to take advantage of this group training environment where you will gain a lot of confidence in becoming a more well-rounded triathlete. We will help you discover strengths that you never knew were possible.

Leave your normal stressors of life behind you as you train, eat, relax, sleep and have a lot of fun.

FAQS

When should I plan to arrive/depart?

We suggest to book your travel so that you arrive by early afternoon on Thursday. We suggest to depart on Sunday late evening or Monday morning.

Where should I find lodging?

We suggest to stay in Travelers Rest.
There is a Hampton Inn at 593 Roe Center Ct, Travelers Rest, SC. 20690 or you can search for an Airbnb or VRBO.

Where can I eat in Travelers Rest?

The local grocery stores (Publix or Ingles) are less than 10 minutes away. There is also a Super Walmart, CVS and Walgreens in Travelers Rest.
There are several locally-owned restaurants in downtown Traveler’s Rest.

Do you cater to dietary restrictions?

Absolutely. Just let us know your food allergies/intolerances and we will be sure to find you a replacement option for our pizza dinner and for any snacks that are provided during workouts.

How should I get my bike to camp?

If you are not planning to drive with your bike, we suggest to fly with your bike.
If you are flying with your bike, you do not need to bring your bike pump as we will have plenty available.

I'm nervous about your terrain, I heard it is hilly!

Yes, our terrain is challenging, specifically for cycling. If our terrain worries you, this camp may not be ideal for you. 
We will never put our athletes on terrain that is unsafe and we select routes that will cater to all athletes at our camp.
However, our focus is to help you become a more skilled cyclist so that you will feel comfortable climbing, descending and cornering.

What's the difference between the Early Season camp and the Endurance camp?

Both camps are geared for triathletes and we expect you to bring great fitness to camp. However, the training load at the endurance camp is significantly greater than our early season camp. While it is ok if you are not a strong swimmer or runner for either camp, the endurance camp is very cycling heavy. At our endurance camp, we expect you to be able to ride for 4+ hours on very hill terrain and to be able to bounce back quickly from longer/intense training sessions. Because this camp is late summer, we ask that you arrive fit, strong and healthy with several months of consistent training behind you. We hope that the endurance camp boosts your fitness and confidence before your late season Ironman. This camp will be challenging and will stretch your comfort zone. Reach out to us to see if the endurance camp is the right fit. 

What if I get injured before the camp but I’ve already registered?

We understand that injuries and sickness occur and well, life happens. We will treat injuries and sicknesses on a case by case basis in the case of a full refund. We do not advise that you come to this camp with an injury or if you are just getting over an injury or sickness. We need you to arrive to this camp feeling healthy, rested and fit.
Contact us in the case of an injury to discuss another camp/training experience with Trimarni.

I am not a Trimarni coaching athlete, can I still attend?

Absolutely! We would love to have you at camp if you feel this camp is the right fit for you.
