What They Do Throughout the week, participants learn the fundamentals of each sport - no prior triathlon experience required. Small group coaching from experienced staff. They learn how to transition between swimming, biking, and running.

The Big Day The week concludes with a Mock Triathlon on Thursday where they put their new skills together. Family and friends are invited to attend and cheer them on.

Important Prerequisites Camp requires: - Must be able to swim one full length (50 meters) of John Sevier Pool without assistance - Must be able to ride and stop a bicycle confidently without training wheels or assistance - Bike and helmet required - Athletes do NOT need to be proficient runners

Pro tip: Make sure they have a swimsuit, goggles, and swim gear ready to go. The bike practice is in parking lots and low-traffic streets, so it is not a full road ride.
