Train2Race Camp

Registration opens February 2025

Train2Race Camp is geared towards experienced paratriathletes who want to take their racing skills to the next level. The camp is open to anyone who has completed a minimum of two Sprint-distance triathlons within the last 16 months without an on-course guide (excluding visually impaired athletes who use sighted guides). In addition to paratriathlon training, participants will learn race preparation, strategy and techniques. At the conclusion of camp, athletes will take on the Pleasant Prairie Triathlon — the site of the 2024 USA Triathlon Paratriathlon National Championships.

Participants receive

• Advanced skill instruction in swimming, cycling, running/wheelchair pushing and triathlon transition
• Access to adaptive equipment, wetsuits, handlers and sighted guides
• High-level training from certified coaches and mentor athletes
• Lodging arrangements (double occupancy)
• Meals
• Dare2tri tech T-shirts and tri top
• Entry into the Pleasant Prairie Triathlon

Location

Camp activities and lodging are located in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin (about one hour from Chicago).
