Sign-up 

(This link:  The highly recommended minimum training to prepare)


Who: Girls entering 6th-9th grade in the fall of 2024 (and any new athletes entering grades 10th-12th grade). This is for those who are serious enough about running that they are willing to prepare for this camp so that they will be able to participate fully and find it more enjoyable. This is intended to be a little more intense than just a “participation” experience.


What: Cross Country Summer Training/Conditioning/Learning Camp. 


Where: We will meet in the grass at the high school, in front of the football/track stadium gates - the NORTH parking lot.


When: June 3rd-7th from 9:45-11:00 a.m. 


How: Athletes will need to come prepared to run by already being fairly fit (be able to run 3 miles consecutively - Be sure to build up to this gradually.  Here is a plan you can follow). Athletes should be wearing appropriate clothing and footwear for running and for the weather conditions.


Why: Provide an opportunity to work with the TKHS Girls Cross Country Coach (Sam Wilkinson), to gain some basic running knowledge, and to do a variety of workouts. This program will help the athletes kick-start their summer training for their upcoming high school or middle school season. This also provides an opportunity to be active, run, and have fun doing this with others. 


Cost: The cost of this program is an OPTIONAL donation of any amount to the cross country program, as well as the training in preparation. NOTE: There will be no t-shirts or frills to speak of. This is a very practical, but challenging camp. Please take the preparation seriously.


NOTE: If you are going to be in middle school next year (2024-2025), consider continuing to run 1-2 miles a day (2 miles a day would be great), BUT make sure you take at least one day a week off per week.

(Those entering high school have different training plans).
