Tim Waggoner “Coach Lucho” and I have been building this idea for months and decided that NOW is the time.  We both know what’s involved in endurance events and take it seriously.  We’re not saying you won’t have great fun (you will) but we, and you, will put in serious work to get you ready for your big event and make you a better, more prepared athlete.  We both like the idea of all-inclusive camps, so the participants can focus 100% on the training content, so we’re including everything right down to transporting the folks to the camp (you just have to get yourself to Boulder).  Please email us with questions and/or to solidify your spot.  We’re limiting the camp to around 8 people.

See the “Leadville May 25th-29th” page for more details, including cost!
