Ironman Camp - Taupo
Wednesday, 7 February 2018 4:00 PM


Taupo

The event occured in the past




Ironman Training Camp targeting Ironman NZ More info to come....stay tuned.

Check back for more info on the details of the camp, but it will be similar to last years format.

We think we have a couple of great houses booked as the Camp Accomodation. 

  • 18 Oregon Dr, Rainbow Point (This will be camp HQ)
  • 78 Rokino Av, Hilltop

If you already have an accomodation option in Taupo that is fine, you don't have to stay at one of the camp houses.

The camp fee for those staying at the houses will be $395 for the 4 nights, and for those not staying with us will be $45.  There are a few $$ added on just to cover additional expenses such as training session refreshment, BBQ dinner and a few other incidentals.

Non-members are welcome to come along too, but for them it will cost $150 (+ accomodation if needed).  Attendees will have to arrange food for themselves, however we will have a BBQ dinner on Sunday night.

I (Coach Rob) will only be taking part in a few of the sessions, so I will be roadside giving coaching advice and doing a few video clips and Soc Med posts throughout the camp.

Payment for the camp can be made to:
