this is the 3rd time I have done this trip. It always lives up to expectations as being challenging and fun. The coaches are fab and I feel like I get private coaching as the ratio of coaches to clients is so good.
I would recommend this to anyone as they cater for all ages and abilities.
my first ever running camp and first time away as a lone traveller. My slight nerves about the holiday completely evaporated from the moment I was met at the airport. It lived up to all expectations and beyond. Tough training but still great fun. An excellent mix of ages, abilities and experience with a very inclusive feel. Plenty of time to relax but never a bored moment. Can’t wait to do it again.
Great “holiday” and lovely coaches! I was really nervous as I am very(!) new to triathlons, but the embrace team were so welcoming, patient and made me feel safe at all times. I would definitely recommend this holiday to anyone, novice or pro, as there were challenges for everyone no matter how experienced. It was just a really friendly, relaxed atmosphere and I couldn’t have imagined I would’ve enjoyed it as much as I did.
An extension to summer, great people, training, and food! What more could you ask for a late season Triathlon camp and vacation. Can’t say enough great things about the coaches and how well organized each day is. A great setting and variety of activities each day, with a good deal of thought about training volume and intensity to help everyone make the most of the week. The setting in Lagos is amazing – great accommodations, beautiful sunrise swims, coastal runs and some excellent cycling options throughout the entire camp. I’ll be back for camp #10 in 2020
What an excellent week of fun and sport which catered for all abilities. Great food, coaching and company. Will definitely be back again. Thank you Team Embrace xx
Just returned from a week with embrace @ the novice tri camp. Great week, great weather, great coaching (I’m always learning). Great cycling routes and fab morning swims. All levels catered for. Will be back again soon. Thanks Neil and Chris for a great week.
Thank you to the guys and gals of Embrace! A great, fun week of training (and eating!) in the Algarve. Excellent, supportive coaches, beautiful running and riding routes, stunning sunrise swims and the most delicious food. Each day is excellently organised and they cater for all abilities/situations. These guys really know their stuff and seem to have nailed a magic formula to make you feel at ease, comfortable but also work hard!
Having just completed my second Embrace Tri Camp and the first in Portugal I would have no hesitation in recommending home to anyone.
Great fun , well designed training programme and catering for all abilities.
The coaches are all very capable and the groups were split if needed to ensure everyone was challenged but still had fun. Your abilities o matter how good or how inexperienced was no barrier to participation in every session.
Will be booking again without doubt.
Thank you
I really enjoyed the camp once again. Great group, really good sessions, and amazing food. See you in March!
I hold my hands up – I’m a bit biased here. This is the 7th time I’ve been on an Embrace training holiday. There is a reason for that – these guys are the BEST at what they do! The week was structured with a variety of challenging yet always fun sessions, ensuring that all abilities and levels are catered for. There was early morning ocean swims, long, scenic rides on the bike, beautiful woodland trail running, duathlon, fun aquathlon, pool swimming, brick runs, plenty of coaching and advice….and the most amazing food and lovely company. What more can you want!?
I’ll be back soon.
I’ve just spent a fantastic week with Neil, Greame, Neil, Kat and the crew at Embrace. As a relatively inexperienced triathlete, I didn’t really know what to expect from the week’s training but I had nothing to worry about. The guys trained us hard but made it really enjoyable. And the hospitality was great – lovely apartments, fantastic food and great company. From the moment we arrived, the whole group just got on so well, it felt like being away with a bunch of friends, not people I had only just met. I would certainly recommend an Embrace holiday for anyone who enjoys training.
I have just returned from this holiday and had a fantastic week. The swimming and cycling was great and the food and hospilatily of Graham, Kat and Neil was fantastic. I recommend this holiday for all levels, the coaching and tips I have picked up have been invaluable. I also hurt my foot and couldn’t run but I was given many alternative training sessions so didn’t feel like I was missing out. Thank you Embrace!
I’ve been trying to succinctly say how I felt about my holiday, but like in the title, it was just way beyond all my expectations. The food, the location/accommodation, the coaches, the sessions, my fellow ‘holiday-makers’, the weather, the sea-swimming, I learned so much and had such an amazing time. I really didn’t want it to end… It felt more like a ‘family adventure’, than a ‘training camp’. I am definitely coming back, if you will have me!!
Great work Graeme, Neil and Rachel. Good support and patience.
My fourth Embrace trip, but my first ever triathlon trip. All the great things from the running trips were still great and the addition of running and cycling made it all the better. The coaches did a fantastic job with the swim/cycling novices like me and I will be back again soon! Thanks guys…
This was my second Embrace ‘holiday’ and my second October Triathlon. I was a little reticent to repeat the same holiday from last year, but I needn’t have worried. The sessions were varied and adapted to the people present, and the only ‘issue’ about returning was knowing what Hell on the Hills had in store for me! The coaches were great as usual, and all other aspects from the location, to the accommodation and the sessions were fantastic! I’d be tempted to return next year, but maybe I’ll try something different instead…..
I am new to triathlons so I was a little apprehensive about the trip. I shouldn’t have worried. The guys were very accommodating, helpful and encouraging. I may have broken the record of the longest time spent in transition and I was nearly sick after the Hell on the hills but I had an amazing time, picked up heaps of tips, met some lovely people and had loads of fun. Thank you All!
I had a great time, the coaches and group were fantastic, we all got on really well and supported each other. The accommodation and food were also amazing, and I loved the fact that the town and beach were within walking distance. Being mostly at the back of the group when cycling, I always had either Neil or Graeme in sight so I wouldn’t get lost :-). Thanks guys!
I did the October Triathlon holiday in 2014 and it was such an incredible week. I turned up a complete amateur who had dabbled in the sport in a very casual way, and they catered for my inexperience 100% and pushed me to see what I could achieve. It gave me amazing confidence in my abilities and I booked another two weeks the day I got home!
There is no distinction between the best, fittest and most experienced and those with less experience. Embrace and the coaches (Graeme, Kat, Alan, and Andy) made sure that everybody got the most out of the week.
And we baked, which is ALWAYS a bonus!
I then got home and won a triathlon the very next day!
