The Jim Ryun Running Camp

About The Jim Ryun Running Camp

Since 1975, our running Camps have been contributing to the development of countless young runners by teaching them what it takes to become the complete runner - physically, mentally and spiritually.
Producing dozens of Division I, II and III All Americans, state high school champions and Olympians and World Championship team members, the Jim Ryun Running Camp is unique amongst its peers in that it does not focus solely on training the young runner physically, but also mentally and spiritually. Over the years, the Jim Ryun Running Camp has become the premier high school running and cross country camp, counting among its alums Ryan and Sara Hall, Josh and Jordan McDougal, Jenny Simpson and others.
Each day at the Jim Ryun Running Camp is carefully scripted for maximum impact. It's a culture that encourages excellence and challenges young runners to change their paradigms from what most of their peers are doing to how elite runners think and train. It's what drives us as a Camp to select the right coaches, lecturers and staff each summer.
