## Description

Track season is won in the off-season. Fly Tri Racing's first Distance Track Camp gives middle school and high school runners a head start on speed, strength, and race strategy for the 800m, 1600m, 3200m and beyond. Coaches William Ritter and DJ Ivie lead two days of hands-on coaching at Fusion Athletic Club and Three Lakes Track in Tyler, TX, with Fusion strength coach Elijah Watson running the strength session.

What campers gain: speed and track workouts built for the 800/1600/3200; running form analysis, drills and strides; strength, mobility and injury-prevention work; race tactics and pacing; seminars on nutrition, recovery, mental training and recruiting, plus coach Q&A.

Schedule:
Monday, December 21, 10:15am-2:00pm - aerobic development, drills, strides, presentations, team activities. Bring a sack lunch.
Tuesday, December 22, 10:15am-3:30pm - speed development, track workouts, strength training, presentations, group activities.

Grades 6-12 (ages 11-18), co-ed, all experience levels. Every camper gets a dri-fit shirt, water bottle and drawstring bag.
