FOR CROSS COUNTRY & DISTANCE RUNNERS ENTERING MIDDLE THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL
Camp Highlights
The RGR Training Youth Running Camp is designed to promote running as a competitive sport and provide a
place for athletes to train in the summer. Its focus has been to draw middle and high school runners who plan to
participate in cross country, track or running activities. The growth of the camp has encouraged the participation
of all levels of runners from novice to elite. Camp staff includes presently active runners and coaches that will
assess each athlete individually and assist in developing personal running goals through support and encourage-
ment.
Camp Agenda
All athletes will go through a proper warm up and stretching session. Each runner will be assigned a group for
detailed training (fartlek, tempo runs, time trials, long runs). At the end of the day, all athletes will gather for
proper cool down and stretching. During the camp, speakers will address various training topics:
- Training principles/techniques/philosophies
- Hydration and hot weather running
- Fuel and nutrition
- Stretching guidelines and injury prevention
- Pre-race and race strategies and tactics
- Running form and economy
- Biomechanics and proper footwear
- Strength training

Safe Environment
Camp will be held entirely within McAllister Park, on trails and some pavement with minimal road traffic.
Running Logs
Runners are strongly encouraged to keep a running log prior to, during, and after the camp in order to establish
consistency. During the camp, running logs will be evaluated by camp staff, and training suggestions and adjust-
ments will be made based on the logs.
