Middle School Camp:
The middle school camp will meet at the same times and locations as the high school camp. However, middle school athletes will be under the direct supervision of Mountain Ridge Middle School Coach Karen Sprafke throughout the summer. Training will be kept age appropriate for our younger runners at camp. Incoming 6th graders are also welcome to join our middle school cross country camp.
*Incoming 5th graders please reach out to Karen Sprafke ([email protected]) if you are interested in summer running.
Attendance:
Attendance is 100% optional. The coaching staff will offer practices 6 days a week, but we understand athletes will be out of town for family vacations or other summer obligations.
Training:
All running programs are based on the experience and ability of each individual runner. Training for an incoming 9th grader who has never run before will look drastically different from a senior who has been in the program for three years.
Final Surge:
Throughout the summer and fall season the coaches will be sending out workouts virtually through "The Final Surge". This will give runners the opportunity to view their weekly training plan throughout the summer and fall. This will also allow the coaches an opportunity to help you with your running by being able to coach you both in person and virtually.
