About This Activity
Did someone teach you how to ride a bike? How about how to throw a ball? Can any of you remember someone teaching you how to run? Running is often one of the few sports where most of us were told that our bodies would just figure it out. This camp focuses on developing a holistic understanding of running and preparing runners for any sport including the upcoming cross-country season. Each runner will advance their understanding and application of: Dynamically warming up their bodies Developing proper running mechanics through drills Running via effort by evaluating key markers of their bodies Strength training for power development and injury prevention Increasing maximum running speed Each runner will receive an exercise mini-band, daily post-run snacks, and a summer training plan. All campers are also encouraged to bring a water bottle. These sessions will be run by Gilman's XC and Track Distance Running Coach, Cody Miles. Coach Miles has coached multiple MIAA A Conference Distance Running Track Champions and national qualifiers. Coach Miles also works at a local running store and will assess and assist all runners in choosing the right running shoe.
