The focus for camp is training and is recommended for motivated runners. All abilities are welcome; the only requirement is the desire to be better. Athletes should prepare for training and have run in the weeks prior to arrival. Besides training, athletes will be instructed by collegiate coaches, health professionals, and top athletes on motivation, nutrition, biomechanics, weights and circuit training, goal setting, injury prevention, & sports psychology.

HOUSING and DINING:

Campers will be housed in an on-campus residence dorm located close to training facilities. All campers will eat, sleep, and live in the same manner as Tech student-athletes. Everyone will be housed in a Virginia Tech dormitory. Coaches and counselors will be living alongside campers in every dorm and on every floor. On campus dining facilities will feed our campers and are only a short walk from the dorms and athletic fields. Meals are all-you-can-eat and each meal has a large variety of foods to choose from. The VT dining service is the number one college food service in the U.S.

2013 Camp dates: July 8th-13th or July 22nd-27th

Training Week: Session One and Session Two are similar. They will be limited to 200 at each session.

Training will be based on individual experience. Our goal is a motivating and meaningful camp without injuries or over training. Camp will include two-a- day runs, optional pool workout, circuits, plyometrics and daily strength training.

There will be free time to rest, play volleyball, ultimate, or just talk to new friends. Plus group activities like river tubing and hikes into the Cascades.
