The Bruins Running Camp offers both novice and experienced runners an exciting opportunity to train for a week in one of the top running communities in the South. Outside of daily workouts, campers will have the opportunity to learn about running techniques, injury prevention, training methods and race strategy. It is a great way to prepare for the upcoming cross country season or a future race. Runners of all levels are welcome to be a part of this challenging and fun camp.
