Cross Country Summer Running
Why we do it
Summer conditioning is crucial to the development of the long-distance cross country runner. To run
the speeds and distances of a 5k or 10k requires a regimented approach to properly training the
adolescent body. Runners will practice enhancing their physical and mental abilities in preparing for
long-distance running, understand proper nutrition to optimize the body’s performance, and build
group camaraderie.
Who is invited?
Anyone 13 years old and above interested in conditioning for long-distance running, whether it is for the
cross country team or for personal fitness goals is invited to attend. All fitness levels are welcomed.
Dates and Locations
Module 1 - Coach’s Clinic
Includes 15 contact days with the cross country coach. These days include instruction on
running technique, pacing, and a progression of body-workout intensity. The team will also
participate in a book study of a bestselling running book.
Module 2 - Team Conditioning
Includes 12 days without coaches, led by juniors and seniors of the cross country team and adult
volunteers. Running is the primary focus on these days.
Module 3 - Professional Cross Country Camp
These days will overlap with Team Conditioning and are optional. It includes the opportunity to
attend a cross country camp with other coaching experts and runners from other teams in the
region. These are often fun, challenging, and inspiring. Those hoping to make varsity cross country
should make an effort to attend one of these. JV hopefuls are also invited.
