Training Camps

In 2023 we will be offering two levels of training camps.

For those who want a high-intensity weekend in the mountains, join us a weekend of running and fitness. Everyone is welcome but these camps are geared towards soloists.

For those who are new to trail running, we will have one camp for intro/beginner female trail runners. Learn trail technique, what to bring, and insider tips from seasoned trail runners.
