2010 SKINFIT TRAINING CAMP – SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA


Our annual Skinfit Training Camp was a huge success! We had over 20 athletes, logged over 20 hours of training in some of the most beautiful countryside in the world, and learned a lot about how to become a faster triathlete from our coaches.

We would like to thank all of the attendees for joining us and we hope to see you again in 2011! Without you these camps obviously wouldn’t happen!

 

Also, a huge thank you goes out to our coaches, Asheley Frogner and Reto Waeffler.  Both brought a tremendous amount of energy and passion to the daily routine. Asheley was a figurehead on the pool deck everyday and put in long hours analyzing swim videos so that every camper left with a specific plan to improve their swim stroke. She also accompanied all of us on our rides providing insight into what has made her such a well-rounded triathlete. Her nutritional talk was also a big hit…it was great to hear how she uses Powerbar products in both training and racing. Reto brought a wealth of knowledge to the table with his years of experience racing on the World Cup circuit. Having an athlete of his caliber out there everyday for all of the workouts was truly priceless, especially his guidance during our runs.


Our sponsors also provide a great deal and make the camp possible. A big thank you goes out to Skinfit, Rudy Project, Xterra Wetsuits, Powerbar, and K-man Cyclery. Keith at K-man did so much for us…building/repairing bikes, providing “sag” support, which brought us plenty of drinks, powerbars, and other goodies.

In summary, thank you to all campers, coaches and sponsors. Without you this camp could never happen. See you in 2011!
