Mont Blanc Tri - Sprint distance - 20 August 2016 and Chateau de Chantilly Tri - M distance - 28 August 2016
by Kathryn HarrisonTraining Camp and Two Triathlons in two weeks – had I bitten off more than I could chew?
Having spent the first three months of the year in Madagascar, I came back to Paris to find that the fitness within the Expatries team had greatly increased since I left at Christmas time, thanks to the focused training sessions of our new coach Sylvain. In my typical fashion, I wanted to get stuck straight in and be able to complete the training sessions with the others. However, having learned from experience, I knew this would be a sure way to get injured, going too hard too early. Luckily, I had Sylvain to remind me to be patient and to build up the training slowly and it’s really thanks to him that I’ve been able to get my fitness up with a focused training plan. The focus was to concentrate on events at the end of the season, using Versailles sprint and Torcy aquathlon as training events ready for Mont Blanc Sprint and St Jean de Luz Olympic in August and September respectively.
A key part to my training season is attending a training camp and I keep going back to Les Stables in the Dordogne. I cannot say enough good things about their camp; suffice it to say they are great people and they make a difference to my performance with the swim and run technique coaching and fast-paced cycling.
