The Strake Jesuit Cross Country team has high goals and expectations, as we look to continue our past
successes. Each year, the whole team shares our collective goal of contending for a State title, and we
believe summer running is the key to winning in October and November. We will begin our training this
summer with our Jesuit Cross Country Distance Base Camp in the first week of June and conclude with our
Jesuit XC Prep Camp in the last week of July; we also encourage you to join us at an optional, independently
operated running camp in Boulder, CO for five days in July.
Camp Dates:
•
Jesuit Cross Country Distance Base Camp: May 31 – June 3 (9am-12pm each day @ Jesuit campus)
•
Boulder Running Camp: July 13-17 (overnight in Boulder, CO)
•
Jesuit XC Prep Camp: July 25-29 (9am-12pm each day @ Jesuit campus)
In addition to the camps, we will meet for team runs throughout the summer either on campus at Strake
Jesuit, Herman Park, Memorial Park, or Storey Park. These team runs will be held about 3-4 times a week,
throughout the entire summer. Below is the schedule for all of our summer team runs.
It is highly recommended that all freshmen and current runners attend as many summer team runs on the
schedule as possible. In addition, you should complete the listed workouts on your own in order to be best
prepared for the fall season. We hope to see you at our camps and frequently attend our runs, as we expect
you to be running throughout the summer.
If you or your parents have any questions or concerns, please contact Head Freshmen Coach Nurre or Head
Coach Mike Kerley.
