Our half marathon was a great end to the festival week. No traffic, a return to nature, a flat and fast course. Our first Le Coeur du Chateau hero - Andy Lynex - completed the challenge. Bookings now open for 2026. #swimbikerun #sportsfestival #triathlontraining #triathlontiktok

Festival fun. Our track warm up challenged a few of our festival goers. Bit of work to do to get some coordination back! #running #runningdrills #warmupexercise

At the festival, we welcomed campers - with dedicated showers, washing up area and fire pit. Everyone had use of the performance gym, 25m pool, lake and running trail. We even trialled a dedicated recovery area with ice baths, saunas and hot tub. #travel #goodvibes #festival

More festival magic, enjoying our local triathlon. We're proud to sponsor it and £30 for an off-road sprint is great value too. Come and enjoy the atmosphere in 2026 for this family friendly event, with a kids race too. #triathlon #triathlontraining #ironmantriathlon #swimbikerun

In preparation for the next day's triathlon, we welcomed the local volunteers for dinner and then enjoyed some fireworks. Not bad for a place in the country! #fireworks #festival #chateau

The first of four challenges, our century ride had 100 mile and 100 kilometre options and some stern challenges, exploring the best the region has to offer. #roadcycling #cyclinglife #swimbikerun #sportsfestival

It was great to watch Stage 8 of the Tour during our festival. Mayenne's a haven for cyclists with its own pro stage race. Why? Quiet roads, smooth pavement and glorious landscapes. Its not easy either - our Festival Ride had over 2,000m of elevation. #bike #tourdefrance #cycling

More great memories - our free swim clinic and squad sessions were great fun and hopefully guests feel more comfortable and efficient in the water. Open water stroke analysis coming soon to London. 20 free places, so watch this space!

CPET helps beginners and experienced athletes realise their potential, making training efficient and more effective. The protocols and equipment we use are reliable, research proven and only available in sports performance labs. Even better they're free on most of our camps.

Sometimes we feel so lucky to be able to enjoy nature close up. Take a moment to look what's around and be inspired. #feelbetter #naturelover #escapetothechateau #escapetothechateaudiy

Forget about AG1 or IM8, make your own super greens powder, its cheaper, better for you and more adaptable. #foodiefridays #foodiefriday #healthysupplements #superfoods
