ABOUT THE CAMP
Without Limits Youth Cross Country Camp is open to athletes entering 5th through 12th grade.  The program focuses on the fundamentals of running in an environment that promotes goal acquisition through teamwork and engaged preparation. In other words, we make cross country training fun and encourage athletes to push themselves to become better runners. 

But running is not all we do.  Days are filled with running, hiking, swimming, camp fires, and more.

Many of our campers are competitive students, however, one doesn’t have to be a varsity superstar to attend. Our coaches facilitate a variety of workouts for skill levels from kids who are new to running –  to emerging college athletes.  While you don’t have to be a fast runner, it is still a cross country running camp! ALL campers are expected to be able to run 30 minutes.

We have two programs that run side by side during camp:

HIGH SCHOOL: Since 2014, our High School Program has had top performers and teams from across the southeast. The camp is oriented for teams and individuals looking to maximize their talents as distance runners, learning from some of the top coaches in our region.

MIDDLE SCHOOL: Our Middle School program has much of the same instruction and goal acquisition, but the training and activities are tailored for our less experienced distance athletes. Eighth graders with distance running experience are frequently moved into, and excel, groupings with older runners.
