Unforgettable Week of Training Fueled by Best Camp Food in New England

Granite State Running Camp(to be held August 10-16 in Wilmot, NH) is a week- long running camp that specializes in training all types of runners – rookie, intermediate, and elite level – to reach their full potential. Experienced, championship level coaches and an enthusiastic training staff are ready to work with each runner to better their ability. And with a camper to staff ratio of 4:1, each camper receives personalized attention throughout the week.   

Training runs are done on scenic trails, quiet dirt roads and soft surface rail trails throughout the area and every afternoon we finish the runs and start our recovery by cooling off in the local streams and ponds. Running groups are based on each camper’s fitness and competitiveness allowing them to train with other runners of similar ability in New Hampshire’s picturesque Lake Sunapee Region. In addition, we are in contact with each camper’s coach to help determine the most beneficial week of training for that camper.

During the day, campers spend their free time at the waterfront, on the sports fields or just relaxing in the serene environment.  Every evening, our Rec Directors have an entertaining activity for campers – Minute to Win It competitions, skit night, and end of camp dance are a few of the offerings.  And our entire menu earns rave reviews from ravenous campers who always grab seconds (and sometimes thirds). Great time is spent preparing a menu that is nutritionally balanced for our campers. Our meats come from Whole Foods, our produce from local farmers, and our meals are all home made.

Each year we are fortunate to bring in speakers that offer inspiration and guidance that campers apply to their training and life. Over the past few years our featured speakers have included Molly Huddle, Nate Jenkins, Dave McGillivray, and others.

And on top of all this Granite State Running Camp has FREE Saucony spikes for all campers!  For more information or to register for camp check out our website GraniteStateRunningCamp.com or contact Coley Carden at coachcoley@msn.com or 617.216.9857
