The work behind the season. Filip Kubíček completes training camp in Albufeira

Not every preparation is visible.
Not every effort has an immediate result.

From January 23 to February 6, 2026, the distance running group held a two-week training camp in Albufeira, Portugal. Among the twenty athletes was ŠK Jablonica runner Filip Kubíček.

The athletes trained in professional conditions, with access to a 400 m track, gym, sauna and recovery facilities, all located at the Victoria Sport & Beach hotel complex. A nearby cross-country course provided ideal terrain for endurance and strength training.

Long runs were completed in surrounding parks, along the ocean and coastal cliffs, forming a key part of endurance preparation.

The training camp was led by experienced coaches Tomáš Zavadil, Jozef Rončkevič, Jozef Repčík, Miroslav Borovka and Kristína Špitková. Despite challenging weather conditions, all athletes completed their training plans without injury.

Training camps like this build the foundation for the season ahead.
The work done here shapes future performances.

ŠK Jablonica continues to be part of that journey.
