Malone College Cross Country: Run smart and have fun

Yes, we also run, but the main thrust of this camp experience is motivating the young runner to enjoy the sport and to learn about what is happening as they train and become team runners. We have classroom sessions taught by experts and highly successful coaches. We also have mini-sessions on motivation and training progression taught by upper level athletes, some of them being all-Americans and National Champions.

Topics covered by our staff include: training techniques, video form analysis, physiology of training (what happens to your body because of certain workouts), nutrition, special needs for female athletes, goal setting, understanding periodization, injury prevention, strength development for runners, how to become a team leader and many more important concepts.

Your personal school coach will determine the amount of miles you run while at camp. We DO NOT push you to run faster or farther. We want you to follow your coaches plan for mileage- we will make evaluation and suggestions.

We have different costs for groups, but you must send applications in together to get group rates.
