Tichy Fall 2 Weekly Schedule - DRAFT 2026
Welcome to Copper Mountain - The Athlete’s Mountain!
(November 7-14, 2026)
This email will help you plan a fun & productive week at Tichy Fall Session 2. Below, we share the weekly plan, daily schedule, and dryland plan. Pay special attention to all links; they will provide directions, videos, and photos. Keep this email handy to reference ALL week.
We have offered camps at Copper Mountain for multiple decades, and we are confident in this training environment. We continue to tailor each week to best suit the needs of all our racers and families. Please take a few minutes to read and familiarize yourself with our weekly plan. Be sure to add info@tichyracing.com to your address book to receive daily/nightly emails and updates in the “traditional, less colorful” format. Weather, snow conditions, and racer endurance may affect the daily schedule. We will communicate changes in regular nightly email blasts and cover any minor changes at in-person nightly team meetings for Full Camp Athletes (FT) and via Zoom for Day Camp (DC). Please reply by email (include the session number) with any additional email addresses you would like added to the nightly communications.
Feel free to reach out with any questions at any time before arrival. See you at camp in Colorado this November.
