The Great White North Half Iron Success Camp with Lisa Bentley
Eleven-time Ironman Champion, Lisa Bentley would like to invite you to the 2012 Great White North Half Iron Success Camp on the Great White North Half Iron course - June 1st to June 3rd.
This camp will be ideal preparation for anyone preparing to race Great White North Half Iron. The timing will allow you to put into practice the mental and technical skills gained during this hands-on training weekend for your entire summer of racing! You will also learn Ironman training and racing strategies which you can apply to your upcoming summer season or Subaru Ironman Canada. To accommodate the variety of ability levels, we will offer a shorter 70 km bike ride as well as the 90 km Great White North Half Iron course. Lisa’s on course mental, tactical and nutritional expertise will be shared and then practiced during the hands-on portion of the camp by swimming, biking and running on the course!
Join eleven-time Ironman champion, Lisa Bentley, Dave Cracknell, coach and triathlon pioneer, and their staff for a successful Great White North Half Iron training experience.
Here is a testimonial from our Success Camp IMC
“Lisa’s camp was simply the best investment I made in my preparation for IMC. She provided invaluable advice on all aspects of Ironman training – both generally and specifically related to IMC. Sport by sport, Lisa reviewed her approach in both training and racing the actual course. The supported ride and run was a great opportunity to experience the course as it will be on race day. With the group being very small, Lisa had the opportunity to observe our strengths and weaknesses and give us individual feedback! Lisa was always available for questions and personal discussions. It was wonderful to experience first hand Lisa’s enthusiasm and optimism, the “can do” attitude that she is so famous for. Lisa really put her heart into this camp and worked really hard for us. It was extraordinarily motivating and made the weekend a lot of fun. Her down to earth personality created an instant feeling of camaraderie in the group. I enjoyed the camp immensely, found it incredibly useful and would highly recommend it to anyone.”
