There’s no better way to celebrate completing a tough workout

Watching 24 high school runners give all they've got every day is inspiring stuff. We reward them with ice cream and Black River play time along with lectures about exercise physiology and how to create a training plan for the rest of their summer. They also get a chance to grill their coaches during the Stump the Chumps session - the young runners are fearless when it comes to pushing their coaches hard! Another highlight of this week's camp: talented artist Wyatt asked if he could take over doing the white board in the Lounge each day. We were treated to amazing art and graphics every day. Thanks Wyatt!

There will be 3 high school cross country camps next summer - come join the fun. See you next year!
