I know it seems madly early to be thinking about an early spring training camp in Lanzarote, but Club la Santa gets booked up earlier each year so we have to act now. I have reserved seven one-bed apartments at CLS with three people per apartment for Sat Feb 23 to Sun March 3 (eight nights) as today is the last day of the discounted early-bird rate of £1,157 per apartment. This means the cost of accommodation and access to nearly all of la Santa's sporting facilites will cost just £385.66 per head, excluding flights and meals, and there are twenty one places available.

If you would like to come for this self-coached training camp, please PM me to let me know and include your phone number and email address. You will need to pay a £100 deposit now as I will need to forward all deposits to CLS by the end of July. The balance will be due 2-3 months before departure.

It is hard to remember how grim the Beast from the East was in Feb/March this year as we bask in a heat wave, but Lanza was definitely better than staying home!

There is usually an alternative club training camp in Mallorca later in the spring with Tri Camp that is more structured and has coaching. This is better suited to people new to the sport or who want to get personal coaching during their tri camp.

Hi Tim,

the 21 places are all taken but I can put you down as No2 on the reserve list in case there are any drop outs later in the year. In that case you would pay the £100 deposit to the person who is dropping out so that they are not out of pocket.

What a solid crew! Can't wait. Booking flights soonish.

OK, confirmed people on camp who have paid their deposits as follows:
Erika Kennington, Becky Goodwin, Nick Flower, Francesco Sias, George Hay, Colin Merton, Saffron Pineger, Oliver Dewhurst, Alicia Furmanczyk, Paul Warren, Rosie Lang, Steve Imbrol, Raya Hubbell, Nicola Kelly, Joe Fletcher, Sarah Rounding, Emily Birch, Ashley Dickson, Ben Hudson.

Ash Dickson is going to book an apartment direct with CLS, so her place will become available and I will refund her deposit.

Hugh Stobart and Matt Curry have expressed interest but have not yet paid their deposits. Hugh, I will PM you my account details.

Anna Marshall has expressed interest and is No 1 on the reserve list in case anyone drops out.

I suggest you book your flights asap. Try to book the 07:40am Easyjet flight from Gatwick on Sat Feb 23 and 12:40pm Easyjet return flight on Sun March 3 so that we can arrange a transfer for people/bikes through CLS. Cost of flights is currently circa £124 but bringing bikes addes a wopping £84 to this for round trip, so you may want to rent a bike from CLS instead.

Ashley, you are arranging your own apartment directly with CLS and I am refuding your deposit, is that correct? Please PM me your account details so that I can do the refund.

Yes and will do. My sister is going to come to Scotland to join in the training fun after I entered her in Barcelona 70.3 for her birthday : ) 

Scotland?! The training camp is in Lanzarote!

Thanks for confirming Ashley, I've refunded your deposit.

I've also booked the flights Charles suggested - there may well be some birthday bubbly at the airport for those coming on the silly o'clock flight on the 23rd!

Yes, that’s be  great thanks
