X-TREME RUNNING CAMP TESTIMONIALS:

"The X-Treme Running camp gets me really motivated for Cross Country. The Guest Speakers are very inspirational and even though Camp is demanding, it's also a lot of fun."

Dylan Capwell, Hopatcong High School Junior, X-Treme 5K Winner, 1:55 800 meter runner 

"I owe a lot of my success to the X-Treme Running Camp. It gets me in great shape physically as well as mentally for the cross country season."

                                      Kristen Landry, Mountain Lakes Senior, 3 time Sectionals Champion

"I like regular people out there who are doing amazing things. They're my idols because all of you can start as regular runners and push to do amazing things." 

                                        Michael Mykytok, X-Treme Speaker & National Champion

"There are things that make a good runner: you must have the interest, the attitude and the discipline. Sussex County is one of the best places I would train myself. The terrain around here is absolutely wonderful."

                                         Peter Rono, X-Treme Speaker, Olympic Gold Medalist

"Somewhere in the world, someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win."

                                          Tom Fleming, X-Treme Speaker, NY Marathon Champion

"The X-Treme Running Camp was a great bonding experience for our team. It helped set us up for a record breaking season.

"X-Treme Running Camp is awesome. I've learned so much from the speakers as well as the staff there, and it has really inspired me to think big."

                                          Michael Galonski, Newton High School Graduate, SCIL 3,200 Meter Champion

"Remember that no matter how nervous you get about the race, it's also something you should enjoy. I think that's the one thing in my career I regret ... not enjoying the competition enough."

                                            Marcus O'Sullivan, X-Treme Speaker, Olympian and World Famous Miler

           
 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 4:30 to 7:30, 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.

PLEASE NOTE: Camp drop off is between 4 and 4:30 pm. If you arrive prior to 4 pm, you will be charged a parking fee by the park. Parents are encouraged to stay for Camp on the final day as we hold a 5K race for the kids. Should you have to cnacel after you have sent in your registration form, you cn either choose to be reimbursed 50 percent of the fee or apply it to the 2013 Camp.
