Hi Nick,
I had really good time at the camp and I have definitely learnt a lot from it thanks to you, Jess and everyone else involved.
Many thanks

Hi Jess,
Thank you and Nick very much for an AWESOME camp!!! I really enjoyed myself, learned tons and love your training playground in Noosa!! I've been to several camps now and I can certainly tell that your camp was well thought out, structured and organised - I will definitely do another one with you guys in the future! And I really enjoy the people these camps attract…
Cheers,

Hi Nick,
Thank you also to yourself and Jess for the awesome camp :) It was great to be a part of it and I will certainly come again! I have already recommended it to a couple of my fellow tri-sters who are also interested in coming in the near future.
Cheers!

Hi Nick and Jess,
I just wanted to write to you quickly to say thank you so much for the tough but brilliant five days I've just had at Noosa.
About twelve months ago now, after I finished my first long course race at Gundy, I swore that I would NEVER do an Ironman. Not a chance. Of course, saying never is the Universe's way of making a liar out of you so here I am staring down IM Melb in four weeks. I would never say I was particularly confident of finishing the race or finishing it well, but now having gotten through the camp last week and the race on Sunday, I feel the 24th of March is going to be an amazing day out.
I can't thank you both enough for the support and coaching you provided last week. You have truly found your niche as stellar athletes-turned-mentors and the impact that you and your coaching, your encouragement and your faith in people has on those that attend the camps is massive. Attending the camp was quite simply the best thing I could've done to cement my confidence in myself, my own ability and what I can do on the day. Not what I can do in comparison to anyone else, but what I can do for myself to get me over that line.

Thanks Jess and Nick for what I thought was an awesome camp last week. I found it really beneficial – obviously from a training perspective, but also informative as well. Most importantly I have a whole lot more confidence now that I can conquer this IM beast which is really the main thing. Feeling ready and pumped (just getting my neck issue sorted) – so thanks for contributing to that J.
BTW – still can’t believe how lucky we were with the weather!
Cheers

Thanks for organising an awesome
camp! I have no idea how I would have
achieved the same level of training
in Brisbane.
All the sessions where challenging
and interesting which broke up my
normal monotonous training sessions.
The speakers for the non-training
sessions where brilliant and opened
my mind to ideas and techniques I
am sure only the pro’s use!
All in all a well organised camp which
I will be definitely attending again
even if I am not doing Ironman!
Thanks again - Tom

Quality is the best description
of MSC's recent Noosa camp. Quality
in organisation and routes; quality
in the program format; quality in
the guest presenters; and high quality
of Jess's home made muffins. Having
never attended any sort of training
camp I was pleasantly surprised by
the attention to detail and the open
and encouraging environment created
by MSC. I have taken from the camp
a greater confidence leading into
my first Ironman event and also knowledge
that my concerns and fears are normal.
Assuming I survive the Ironman I will
be making a Noosa camp an annual pilgrimage.
I would highly recommend this to others
- especially Ironman novices.

Hi Jess/Nick,
Awesome camp again throughly enjoyed
it,was well organised and great value
for money, had great support staff
eg Dan,Jan and Bardie with her help
on Fri. Listening to the Pro althletes
on tues was fantastic. Certainly has
given me the condifience to chase
my dream to do a ironman.
All the best Greg

I had the best time at the camp and
learnt a lot about myself. I was absolutely
thrilled I completed the long bike
ride (a new sensation the downhills
which I find absolutely terrifying,
not sure how to train for that up
here)and I just loved the ocean swim.
They were both huge achievements for
me and would never have done them
on my own, so thanks! Your team were
first class.
You make an awesome team - Belinda

I just wanted to say thankyou for
a very motivating camp. I had a day
of nerves yesterday thinking maybe
I had bitten off a bit more than I
can chew, but this morning I have
done my 40 minute run using all of
your advice. Keeping my heart rate
down, I didn't even need to stop once.
You have definitely put me on track
to complete a Noosa triathlon.
Thankyou again - kate reinhardt

I just wanted to drop a quick line
to you to say thank you for the weekend's
camp. I was very apprehensive before
arriving. And whilst I am very aware
of what I need to achieve in the next
12 weeks to compete, I now have better
knowledge to do that now. The training
sessions, the guest speakers, and
just the one on one tips that were
shared over the weekend will be invaluable.
I had a great time, lots of laughs,
and a couple of wake up calls. My
thanks also to Jess and Dan for their
encouragement and advice. Nick I just
want to also say the professionalism
of the camp was fantastic. The quality
of the guest speakers was great and
really informative, the choice of
restaurants was excellent, the goodies
pack was great and even just getting
bottled water each day was a nice
surprise. And just being able to be
trained briefly by someone of your
sporting ability was invaluable, let
alone your invitation to everyone
to contact you if we had any questions
after the camp.... So thank you, the
camp certainly exceeded all of my
expectations.
Kindest Regards - Heather

Thanks so much for the weekend.
David and I learned so much and I
really enjoyed my first triathlon!!
I feel much more confident on the
bike and really motivated to get through
the next 12 weeks. I was really impressed
at the calibre of the people that
you had in to talk with us and it
was great to interact with Mark, Dave
and Steve (some of the other old hands
in the class) that continued to give
us useful tips throughout the weekend
away. We look forward to seeing you
for the odd training session up at
Noosa soon. Good luck with your training
for the up coming worlds.
Kind regards - Emma and David

I really enjoyed the weekend. The
week following was a bit like my "post
race blues" when I come off a
high and need to get motivated again.
I took advantage of a couple of rest
days and training is now back in full
swing. I will head out to Gatton to
compete in the Duathalon on Sunday.
The Noosa camp had a great mix of
theory and practice, accompanied with
great food, great people, and loads
of hints and race tips. I am now much
better prepared for the upcoming triathlon
season and look forward to achieving
many PB's.
Thank you again to you and the team
and good luck at the World Championships.
Regards - Phil
