Tri Dynamic’s Tenerife Swim Faster Camp will take place from February 20-27th 2016 at the Tenerife Top Training facility. Over the last ten years Dan Bullock has helped thousands of triathletes improve their swimming from beginners to multiple Kona qualifiers, and there is only a few places left from a total of 12 available for the February training camp. The coaching includes extensive video analysis from Dan, a British Masters Open Water age-group champion. Sessions take place across 50m and 25m pools, and in the warm open water swimming venues around the resort.
Commenting on the Tenerife Swim Faster Camp, Dan Bullock said:
“Spending a week concentrating on your swim technique in a high attention environment is a great way to make big gains in a short time frame. Every year this camp generates fantastic improvements and results across the board. We are really looking forward to heading back to Tenerife in 2016”.
Team Erdinger sponsored athlete Boo Alder recently reviewed the camp after making big swim improvements in 2015. You can also watch this video of Dan Bullock swimming in the most advanced swim flume in the world in Tenerife, which Ian Thorpe, WR holders Britta Steffen, Paul Biedermann and GB’s Alistair Brownlee have used to improve their technique. Athletes on the Tenerife Swim Faster Camp also get to try out this flume to help them improve.

Daniela Ryf has capped off a remarkable season by claiming the richest prize in triathlon, a cool million dollars for winning every race in the Nasser Bin Hamad al Khalifa Triple Crown.

On Saturday afternoon, the Swiss Ironman world champ put in a dominant performance to guarantee the huge prize purse was hers. With the swim cancelled due to high winds, the race included a short run before the 56 mile bike leg instead, and Ryf put in a blistering 2:07:28 for the combined short run and bike. She then finished with a 1:18:48 half-marathon to finish in 3:28:20, almost 10mins faster than runner-up (and fellow Swiss) Caroline Steffen. Asa Lundstrom of Sweden was third in 3:39:35.
Ryf began her assault to win the prize back in February, when she won Challenge Dubai. This was followed by victory at the 70.3 World Championships in Austria and finally her victory at the 70.3 Middle East Championships at the weekend.
Ryf said after the race: “This is an amazing moment in my career and I hope for triathlon,I am very grateful that HH Prince Nasser has helped raise the profile of the sport. It has been an amazing year for me. To be honest I have no clue what I will do with all the money. I really need to let this settle a bit!”
Daniela Ryf, who has won almost everything going on the long-distance circuit this year, attempting to let her victory (and new millionaire status) sink in.
In the men’s race, Belgian Bart Aernouts was victorious after taking the lead halfway through the bike leg. Aernouts’ run split of 1:14:00 was just enough to hold off Ruedi Wild, who put in the fastest half marathon of the day (1:12:01) to finish just over a minute behind Aernouts. In third place was third place was South African James Cunnama, who crossed the line another minute behind Wild in 3:13:54.

The last Ironman races of 2015 were held over the weekend, as both Ironman 70.3 Taupo in New Zealand and Ironman 70.3 Ballarat in Australia saw some impressive low-season performances.
Advertisement
American Meredith Kessler used her swim ability to take an early lead, one she would maintain until the finish despite the best efforts of Sam Warriner (NZL), in what is reported to be her final professional race. Warriner, two minutes back in the water closed around half of that on two wheels but would then pay for that on the run, fading to fourth. The fastest ride of the day belonged to Brit Laura Siddall, who finished in 4:19:32 just a minute behind second-placed Amelia Watkinson of New Zealand and a further minute behind Kessler.
Kessler and Siddall were the only athletes to break up the predictable Kiwi dominance on the podium, with all three men’s top spots being taken by New Zealanders. Men’s winner Braden Currie is best known for winning the Coast-to-Coast race in New Zealand, and is often cited as ‘the fittest man in New Zealand’. As well as his adventure-racing prowess, Currie further proved his triathlon credentials with an impressive win against a quality field, finishing almost a minute clear of Callum Millward in 3:51:48.
Ballarat
Australia’s Annabel Luxford was the class of the field at Ironman 70.3 Ballarat. Like Kessler in Taupo she led from the start, and finished 5mins clear of Dutch athlete Yvonne Van Vlerken.
Some pre-race favourites in the men’s race were notably missing from the podium, as Luke Bell suffered a mechanical mid-race and 2012 ironman World Champ Pete Jacobs was forced to withdraw due to illness. In the end it was Aussie Matthew Pellow who grabbed the opportunity for a breakthrough victory, holding off Germany’s Per Bittner and Nick Baldwin of the Seychelles to break the tape in 3:51:21.

With places limited to just 800 over the entire weekend the competition for places is set to be fierce.
The Snowdonia Triathlon Festival (STF) replaces the former Snowman Triathlon – now making the Full, Sprint and Mini-Sprint races the second event in the Always Aim High Adventure Triathlon Series, along with the Slateman and Sandman Triathlon.
The STF also sees some changes to the format of the Legend Triathlon, which was announced earlier this summer. The Iron-distance Legend will be replaced with a middle-distance race called the Legend Half. The Legend Half will take place on Saturday 30 July at Plas y Brenin making it the opening event of the Snowdonia Triathlon Festival. You can see more information on the Legend Half HERE.
