Syracuse Half IM Training Camp
Jamesville Beach County Park
May 31, 2014
Spend an entire day preparing for the Syracuse half IM Triathlon with Endurance Factor Coaching. This training camp will be a challenging training event intended to simulate the stresses of race day. It will test your preparation in every way.

And during the two, 90-minute breaks between training sessions, you’ll have a chance to rest, refuel and learn specific race strategies from certified USA Triathlon coaches.
