Two terrains, one standard of coaching

Train hard.
Explore properly.
Perform when it counts.

Coached performance camps in the Lake District and on the Adriatic coast — built by 20 years of endurance coaching and a competitive career that hasn't stopped.

Lake District · Est. 2026

UK Performance Camps

Weekend and short-break diagnostic training on home ground. Led by the Athlete's MOT — a full performance check-up across coaching, physio, biomechanics and nutrition, on genuinely demanding fell terrain.

Croatia Training Camps

The flagship warm-weather training holiday. A week of coached running, swim-run and triathlon at a private 5★ villa on the Adriatic — the trip you build a season around.

Why two arms

One coaching standard. Two very different weeks.

The UK camps are built for accessibility — no flights, repeatable through the year, a serious training weekend you can do four or five times a season. Croatia is the once-a-year trip: longer, warmer, and built as much around recovery and adventure as training load. Same coaching philosophy underneath both.
