X-TREME RUNNING CAMP Philosophy-
If you are serious about our sport and want to get as much out of a Running Camp as possible, this is the camp for you.
Our guarantee is that you will leave X-Treme Running Camp in better shape, more motivated and with a higher love for our sport then when you came. You need to get something out of every one of your runs because you are doing something very positive for yourself when you get on out there. If you are a competitive youth runner, the X-Treme Running Camp will bring your running experience to a higher level.
Our philosophy is that if you do something, do it right. Get as much out of running as you can and go into your season in shape...both physically and mentally.
Challenge yourself, come to X-Treme Running Camp, and reach your full potential, in all aspects of our sport.
Entering its 9th year, for 2008, X-Treme Running Camp has gained the reputation as one of the most prestigious running camps in the Northeast.
The X-Treme Running Camp experience is something fantastic and unique and takes full advantage of Swartswood State Park's superb training venues. The camp caters to middle and high school runners and welcomes runners of all abilities as well as athletes involved in other sports looking to improve their endurance and speed.
Camp runs from 9 a.m. to noon, and each day includes an endurance session, a speed session (both tailored to each individual's ability) plus a highly-acclaimed guest speaker. Our camp is directed by elite distance running husband and wife team Guy and Laurie Gordon, and all counselors are seasoned adult runners. Specials during the week include: The X-Treme Relay, The X-Treme 5K, The Impromptu Relay and our patented "X-Treme Run Around" drill.
