After 5 years, we are excited to bring camp back to Mohican again this year! We are continuing to improve the experience year after year. We’ll build a quality training & learning weekend for all levels of triathletes to benefit from. The Mohican area offers a great opportunity for challenging runs and rides and the scenery is spectacular. As in the past, we’ve reserved “house style” cabins for the weekend. We’re planning the big Friday rides again for those who can get the day off work and come down early. Some key information for this year: • All meals and snacks are provided • Dinners on Friday and Saturday are catered. • Although we have 2 training tracks – athletes can jump between training options if they choose. • After checking in at the Mohican Adventures entrance – you will be guided to the “Century House” for cabin and bed assignments. • The night run course will be marked with glow-sticks to get everyone through safely & there will be an optional pavement run for those that forgot their headlamp. • OPTIONAL: Bring a unique salad/side dish to show off your culinary skills for Saturday’s lunch – or – bring your favorite homemade portable food to share with your fellow bikers! • OPTIONAL: This year we have a massage therapist joining us for treatment on Saturday/Sunday. She charges $1/minute for post-workout massage. Most treatments are 10-15 minutes. 2015 CTC Training Camp Getting there Mohican Adventures is located just south of Loudonville on State Route three (north of the State Park entrance). The cabins are on the west side of the road (see map below). When you arrive, check in at the gatehouse for your parking and cabin passes. From the Cleveland area, there are several ways to get to Loudonville. The most straight-forward is to take I-71 South to Exit 173 (Mansfield / Lucas exit) to St. Rt. 39. Go East to Loudonville, approximately 18 miles. In town, take St. Rt. 3 South about 1.5 miles to Mohican Adventures. 2015 CTC Training Camp Regional Map Campground Map & Registration 2015 CTC Training Camp Friday Camp Schedule 10 am 2 pm 5 – 8 pm 6:30 pm 7:30 pm 8:30 pm After 67-mile “A” Ride Loudonville / Danville Loop 32-mile “B” Ride Mohican / Loudonville Area Arrival / Check-in Dinner Introductions / Camp “kick-off” Night Run, Mohican MTB Trails (3 / 6 mile options) Campfire (weather permitting) Saturday Camp Schedule 7 – 8:30 am 8:30 am 8:45 am 10-11 am 11-12 am Noon – 2 pm 2 – 5 pm 5 – 6 pm 6 pm 7 – 8 pm After Breakfast Club Photo / Bike Safety Discussion / Bike Prep Newbies: Bike Skills Vets: Big Vets: clinic / Ride Saturday Ride Moderate Ride Newbies: Basic Bike 35+ mile bike options Maintenance though Newbies: Transition Vets: Trail Mohican’s hills clinic or path run Lunch / Rest Newbies: Big Brick Vets: Run Vets: Bike Focus Brick Focus Brick Swim Techniques Clinic Dinner Clinics TBD Campfire (weather permitting) Sunday Camp Schedule 7 – 8 am 8:30 – 9:30 9:30 – 11:00 11:00 am + Breakfast Bike Prep and Warm-up/Stretching Discussion Wally Road Pace Line Riding Lunch / Optional Run / Departure 2015 CTC Training Camp Suggested Gear List Sleeping Bag or Bedding Snacks for Bike Pillow Raincoat / Rain gear Lounging / Casual Clothes Trail Running Shoes (optional) Swim / Bike / Run Clothes Road Running Shoes Bathroom gear Swim Cap Sunglasses / Visors / Hats / Etc.

The next twenty are a bit flatter with varied terrain and a few tough but short climbs. Miles 40-45 you can really open it up on mostly flat open roads. The last twenty will keep you working with climbs on tired legs. The directions are easier that it looks! 2014 CTC Training Camp Mohican / Malabar / Danville 66-miles of hills 0mi 29.05mi Continue on 345/Gatton Rock Rd 29.79mi Turn right at 403/Stoffer Rd 30.11mi Sharp left at Garber Rd 32.99mi Turn right at Hamilton Rd 34.91mi Turn left at Ankneytown Rd 35.32mi Continue on Old Mansfield Rd Start 1.33mi Turn left at W Main St 4.4mi Turn left at Highway 917 5.03mi Turn right at Highway 3006 6.31mi Slight left at Highway 1027 7.61mi Turn left to stay on Highway 1027 8.1mi Turn right to stay on Highway 1027 8.6mi Turn right at Highway 2796 8.65mi Turn left at Highway 1027 8.82mi Continue on Highway 1075 11.28mi Turn left at Gladden Rd 13.41mi Turn left at OH-603 13.43mi Sharp right at Lucas-Perrysville Rd 15.58mi Continue on Dickes Rd 15.83mi Turn left at Moffett Rd 18.29mi Turn left at Pleasant Valley Rd 19.71mi Continue on 438/Bromfield Rd 37.4mi 39.86mi Slight right at 302/Hastings East Rd 23.16mi Continue on Hastings-Newville Rd 23.77mi Continue on 329/Scott Rd 24.77mi Turn left at Washington South Rd 25.5mi Turn right at Swendal Rd 45.53mi Continue on Nunda Rd 47.96mi Turn right to stay on Nunda Rd Continue on Apple Valley Rd 50.04mi Turn left to stay on Apple Valley Rd 50.2mi Turn right to stay on Apple Valley Rd 50.74mi Turn left at Danville Amity Rd 51.22mi Turn right to stay on Danville Amity Rd 54.03mi Turn left at Chapel Rd 55.21mi Turn left at Danville Jelloway Rd/OH-205 55.38mi Slight right at Chapel Rd 57.73mi Continue on Jelloway Rd 59.94mi Continue on Jefferson 61.62mi Slight left at Jericho Rd/Jerico Rd 62.29mi Continue on Highway 739 Continue on 340/Alexander Rd 64.2mi 26.49mi Slight right to stay on Mishey Rd 45.5mi 48.9mi 20.7mi Turn left at Mishey Rd Turn left at 344/Rule Rd Turn left at OH-3 2014 CTC Training Camp Friday “B” Ride 32 miles 1,500 feet of climbing The first 20 miles of this ride are the same as the route as the big ride. Although only 32 miles, the ride involves a lot of climbing and is a challenging ride for any level of cyclist. The ride travels through the heart of Mohican as is a fantastic way to start a big weekend of workouts. 2014 CTC Training Camp Mohican / Malabar 3232-miles through the park 0mi Start 1.33mi Turn left at W Main St 4.4mi Turn left at Highway 917 5.03mi Turn right at Highway 3006 6.31mi Slight left at Highway 1027 7.61mi Turn left to stay on Highway 1027 8.1mi Turn right to stay on Highway 1027 8.17mi Slight left to stay on Highway 1027 8.6mi Turn right at Highway 2796 8.65mi Turn left at Highway 1027 8.82mi Continue on Highway 1075 11.28mi Turn left at Gladden Rd 13.41mi Turn left at OH-603 13.43mi Sharp right at Lucas-Perrysville Rd 15.58mi Continue on Dickes Rd 15.83mi Turn left at Moffett Rd 18.29mi Turn left at Pleasant Valley Rd 21.45mi Turn right at OH-603 21.80mi Turn right at SR 95 23.08mi Turn left at Bunkerhill North Rd / CH 350 (becomes CR100) 25.75mi Turn left on Cleveland Street 28.05mi Enter Mohican State Park 31.85mi Turn left on SR-3 32.10mi Turn left into Mohican Adventures Campground 2014 CTC Training Camp Friday Night Run The trail run through the Mohican mountain bike trails has been a hit since the camp started. We strap on headlamps and keep the pace slow. Lots of climbing and descending. It’s a very social run. It’s only a 5.5 miler, but takes a good amount of time to get through the woods. If you aren’t confident going off-road, you can run on the paved running path nearby or hangout at the campfire. Trail Split Merge Left 2014 CTC Training Camp Saturday Moderate Ride You can’t escape climbing in the Mohican area, unless you spend all of your time on Wally Road. However, based on feedback from last year, we’ve added a moderate ride for those who want to save their legs for a stronger run or bike later in the day. Sure, you’ll still climb 1,000 feet over 13 miles, but the climbs are easy to moderate and you can pace yourself comfortably…. Or you can hammer … your choice!

We will ride out to Pleasant Hill Lake, then follow HFP Racings new Olympic Course for 25 miles (course below), then ride back. Plan on 35 to 40 total miles. If you rode Friday, this ride may very well bring you to your knees! If not, it will be a real quad burner nonethe-less! Visit HFP’s web-site for more information on their up-coming race this June: http://www.hfpracing.com/events/signature/mef/course.htm 2014 CTC Training Camp Saturday Saturday Ride through Mohican (OPTIONAL) (OPTIONAL) 26 miles 2,200 feet of climbing You will be treated to a spectacular ride through the Mohican State Park. You are highly recommended to take in a bit of the scenery as you suffer through over 2,000 feet of climbing. It’s tough, but you’ll be rewarded with an awesome dinner to get your mojo back later that evening! 2014 CTC Training Camp Saturday Afternoon Ride through Nashville (subject (subject to change) change) 27 miles 900 feet of climbing The loop starts out with 11 miles flats down Wally Road along the river. Some challenging climbs come into play for the next 7 miles. In the middle of that stretch is an area where stronger riders can really have some fun on some “quick” rollers and hammer it out at a fast pace – then are rewarded with a steep tough short climb into the Nashville square. The rest of the ride will wear you down a bit with climb after climb (and prevailing winds in your face). Important note: A small portion (about 1 mile) of the ride is on un-paved roads. It’s a little bumpy, but you’ll have no problem as its tight packed dirt and relatively smooth. Just take it a bit slower and you (and your bike) will be fine. Last year, conditions were not good. We will preview the course before camp this year and change the course if necessary. 2014 CTC Training Camp Saturday Nashville Ride (Cont’d) This route is simple. Turn Left out of the campground, just past Mohican Adventures turn right on Wally Road. Take Wally 11miles to the end. Turn left on SR 514 and travel 7 miles to Nashville. Turn Left on SR 60 and head to Loudonville. In downtown Loudonville, turn left on SR 3 and head back to camp. 2014 CTC Training Camp Sunday “In the Flats” Riding (Newbie & Veteran): 32 miles Pace line practice, steady state riding This ride takes the paved portion of Wally Road out to the end of the asphalt, turn around and do 2x back-and-forth for a total of about 32 miles. You can cut out at 16 miles if you need a rest or want to get a longer run in afterwards. We’ll practice some triathlon specific pace lines. For the newbies – this is a perfect way to practice cycling skills before the big Sunday ride. For the veterans, this isn’t a leisure ride, but it isn’t a quad-burner either – and we like to put our speed muscles on and see just how fast we can fly!
