2013 JBST Tri-Camp

At the end of January, I returned to Club la Santa in Lanzarote for the JBST Triathlon Camp, hosted by Joe Beer and Dan Bullock of SwimForTri. The main aim for this camp was to get in some start-of-season training, and to get some swim analysis from Dan.

Unfortunately, I arrived at the camp with a stinking cold, which meant that swimming was out of the question (difficult to stop mid-length to cough and clear your nose!). After missing the first day’s training in an attempt to recover a bit, I managed to get in 5 bike rides for a total of about 9 hours training – a bit less than I’d hoped, but not bad for February.
