JustTrainingCamps

How this catalogue is made

JustTrainingCamps is a curated catalogue of endurance and fitness racing training camps. An editor confirms each listing with the operator who runs it. We take no bookings and handle no payments — operators pay a fixed fee per qualified enquiry, agreed in writing first.

The method

  1. An editor confirms the listing with its operator

    Dates, prices, levels and what is included are checked with the person who sets them, not copied from a page.

  2. The listing records who checked it, and when

    That date is published on the camp's own page and travels with the listing into the feeds and the MCP server.

  3. When an entry goes stale, the page says so

    Past ninety days the listing tells the reader to confirm before booking, instead of presenting an old price as a current one.

What the three states look like

Many operators, one standard

Every operator here is different. What is the same is how we check them.

That is the opposite of one brand running every camp itself, and it is why a season can be built from more than one of them — a base block with one operator, an altitude block with another.

Why this exists

I am Portuguese, and I have finished an Ironman. Both of those are why this is here.

Every time I went looking for a serious training camp, the search ran on Instagram posts, a forum thread from two years ago, and luck. The price I found was often not the price that was true, and nobody could tell me when anyone had last checked.

So I built the thing I wanted: a catalogue where an editor confirms every listing with the person running the camp, and the page says when that happened.

It is deliberately small. A handful of camps someone actually checked is worth more than a directory nobody did.
