How It Works
We host 16 practices between June 10 and August 3, one every Monday and Thursday . Mondays are speed workouts and Thursdays are endurance runs. Campers and their families decide which days to attend based on their schedules and training needs. Blue Pass-holders can attend any 8 practices during the entire 8-week program. Gold-pass holders can attend all 16 practices during the same term.
Practice sessions will include warm-up drills, age- and ability-appropriate running workouts, and cool downs. Campers will also participate in timed runs to gauge improvement and apply learned skills.
Campers must bring their pass to attend practice. Passes will be collected by an 847RC Staffer before practice, so attendance can be recorded. Punched passes will be returned to campers after each practice.
Program info including practice locations, workout details, and liability release forms will be emailed out to all registrants on June 1.
Cancellations
If we have to cancel due to inclement weather, makeup practices will be held.
Important Notes
- Only registered campers and their parents can participate at camp practices. Please register participating siblings separately.
