SoleRoots Racing Summer Running Camp - Middle School Edition

Read time ~ 5 minutes

What a week we had for running! We had our first SoleRoots Racing Summer running Camp of the summer! A number of schools were represented at this year’s camp. We had runners from Bremen Middle, Carrollton Junior High, Central Middle, and Oak Mountain Academy. We would like to thank Oak Mountain Academy for the use of their facilities.

Every day we covered a different topic from the love of running to the importance of rest. We learned about proper nutrition and the mental aspects of running. We discussed proper running mechanics and why it is important to stretch. When Friday rolled around, the student athletes were ready to race with a 3K time trial. They all ran great and are taking what they learned into the 2020 cross country season.

Our high school summer camp is just a week away, running from July 20-24. If you have a high school runner motivated and ready to run what are you waiting for? Have them sign up here! High School Running Camp.
