The countdown to Morzine is on!
08th December 2017 - 19:49 ">
TCUK are returning to Morzine for our third year in 2018! This small town situated 1000 metres above sea level in the French Alps is better known as a hub for skiers and boarders but in the summer months Morzine is paradise for triathletes!
Our home for the five-night stay from Tuesday 5th to Sunday 10th June 2018 will be the spectacular Chalet Albatross with its own spa including large hot tub, sauna and now a cinema room. As always, the food will be prepared by professional chefs and each day you will enjoy a specially cooked breakfast, lunch and 3 course evening meal with wine included to help you relax after a challenging day at altitude.
The camp is aimed at triathletes training towards 70.3 and Iron distance races in 2018 and will provide a unique opportunity to sharpen up race skills and race fitness in one of the most breath-taking locations in the world.
The training will be every bit as spectacular as it has been the last two years and plans have already been made to ride some of the historic mountain passes from the Tour de France along with several other mountains not yet mastered by #TeamTCUK athletes! Added to this will be the beautiful swims in Lac Montriond and Lac Annecy (pictured below) and run sessions in the mountains, around the lakes and at the side of fast flowing rivers.
"Facilities and location – Perfect! Not sure you could better the lodge and its facilities, as well as the food and hospitality, top notch."
“That was the worst pudding you’ve made all week but it was still bloody brilliant” Andrew Boyle Partner at KPMG & #TeamTCUK TT bike Col smasher (pictured below!)
Coaching will be provided by TCUK co-founder & coach Matt Sanderson alongside our hosts and fellow triathletes at Chalet Albatross, Joe & Amelia Pearson from Buzz Performance.
