About Us
Train4tri is run by Hugh and Naomi Colvin. We met during
Hugh's first winter season in Courchevel and apart from a few breaks spent
in the UK we have been here ever since.
We became interested in triathlon a couple of years ago
when we first started spending our summers in Bozel. Since then Hugh has
competed in Olympic, half ironman and ironman events and has even entered
local amateur cycling races.
For summer 2008 we intend to compete in a few local
Olympic distance events, Hugh is entering Ironman France in Nice and Naomi
is hoping to join him in competing in the 70.3 Ironman in Monaco.
We want to show people how much fun training in the
mountains can be. The backdrops to rides and runs are spectacular and with
the addition of training at altitude and the clean mountain air we believe
there is no more challenging and beautiful a training environment that is
perfect for improving fitness, conditioning and endurance.
We both share a passion for living and working in
the mountains. In the winter Hugh is a ski instructor in Courchevel 1850 and
Naomi works as a sports massage therapist. During our time in the Alps we
have between us run chalets, worked in ski shops, been transfer reps and
worked as ski guides making us well equipped for making your triathlon
training holiday as beneficial and enjoyable as possible.
