Event Description

New England Multisport Training Camp, presented by Tri It Your Way Coaching, is an opportunity for athletes to spend a weekend training, learning, connecting and having fun with other multisport athletes. Camp is open to long and short course multisport athletes - there will be options for shorter and longer training sessions to fit your training needs. For the best experience, it is recommended that you do 2 out of the 3 (swim/bike/run), but single sport athletes are welcome to join us - you will simply have more free time!

Over the weekend we will have guided and coached swim, bike and run sessions, along with workshops including strength and mobility. Campers will enjoy a full weekend of training, but there will be time for rest and relaxation in the cozy farmhouse, socializing, group meals and enjoying the farmhouse game room.

Long and short course options will be available for bike rides and runs. At a minimum, it is required that you are able to ride 15 miles (or 1 hour on the trainer) to participate in the rides. Runs will be more flexible with distance with options for walk/run, but it is recommended you are able to run or walk/run a minimum of 30 minutes. Water in Maine will be chilly in May, so if you are planning to participate in the swim, please plan to bring appropriate gear including a long sleeve wetsuit and any thermal camp/booties/gloves you may need, depending on whether you are acclimated to the colder water temperatures. More information will be provided as we get closer to the camp weekend. If you have any concerns or questions about the activities and your ability to participate, please email Coach Anne at anne@triityourway.com and we will make our best efforts to make sure you are accommodated!

The New England Multisport Camp is open to adults (over 18) of all genders. Our camp does not and shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender expression, national origin (ancestry), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status.

**COVID Precautions**
The safety of our campers and those you will be going home to are of the top priority. Due to the nature of the camp with shared indoor living and sleeping spaces, we have policies in place to ensure the safest possible experience for all campers.

1) Campers will be required to be fully vaccinated AND have received a booster shot if eligible according to CDC guidelines. Proof of vaccination and boosters will be required. For more information on whether you are eligible to receive a booster, please see the CDC website Please note that while it does not seem likely right now, by May, 2022 there may be additional doses recommended by the CDC beyond the booster. Campers are expected to schedule and receive any additional boosters recommended by the CDC if eligible. 
2) Campers will also be required to submit a negative PCR test taken within 72 hours of arrival. 
3) Campers will be required to complete a symptoms checklist Friday morning, 5/20 before arriving to camp

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this camp for?
Camp is designed for short and long course multisport athletes who want to improve their fitness, learn how to get the best out of their training and racing, and spend a weekend away with other like minded athletes. Camp is open to all genders.

Do I need to be able to do all 3 sports to attend?
No. This camp is designed for multisport athletes, so in order to get the best experience, it is suggested that you are able to participate in 2 out of the 3 sports. However, if you are a single sport athlete - you are welcome to come! You will simply have additional free time. You can view the sample camp agenda here to take a look at the schedule for the weekend.

Do I have to be fast or be able to keep a certain pace to participate?
No. While it is required to be able to bike at least 15 miles for the short course bike ride and 40 miles for the long course bike ride, you do not have to meet a certain pace requirement. We will have leaders and sweepers on each ride and run to ensure that no one will be left behind. We will also have coaches and leaders during the swim session to ensure the safety and comfort of all swimmers.

Will my dietary preferences or restrictions be honored?
A survey will be sent out to campers in the weeks leading up to camp to make sure we have your dietary preferences and any restrictions. There will be vegetarian and vegan options at all meals, as well as GF options. Should you have any other restrictions, all efforts will be made to make sure you have plenty to eat and fuel with at camp!
