Are you a Coach or Athlete looking to get more 1:1 time with each other?
Beyond the weekly zoom or even race weekend?
Are you a coach that, in our post-pandemic Zoom culture era, grew your roster and have never actually met an athlete in person?
Are you an athlete that needs a little extra support to find that breakthrough performance or PR?
Youre not alone.
It has been argued that the relationship between the coach and the athlete can be the critical success factor in alignment, process, and results. We agree.
First Bourn is introducing Coaches Corner long-weekends for coaches and athletes to find that time. And before the season gets too busy. A place for open, candid conversation, personal 1:1 coaching, off-season cross training and even some blue box technical analysis. Run the trails and enjoy fireside chats (without seeing 5 minutes left in your meeting message from your Zoom or Teams session).
You bring your cleared schedule and focus, we provide all the accommodations, turnkey food / nourishment, and local market immersion options needed to make it a great kick off to your best season ever as a partnership.
We know how busy it can be to align on even schedules. So we are offering two separate weekends to choose from and with plenty of highspeed Starlink to get some remote work done.
Bring an athlete. Or bring a couple. But space is limited.
