Southwest Missouri Running Camp

SWMO has been created with the primary purpose of improving your running in a fun, yet hard working environment. There is also a strong emphasis on Christianity and TEAM Building. Come enjoy a family-like atmosphere with a focus on Character, Discipline, and Faith. SWMO is intended for runners of all abilities.

You will get the opportunity to run with some of the greatest runners in the state of Missouri while being instructed by top-notch coaches from across the state.  Whether you are an All-State performer or if you're just getting started, SWMO is the place for you.You will leave SWMO with a renewed competitive spirit and the tools needed to take you to a whole new level in your running.

Runners will camp out in tents in the tradition of the Kenyan training style, while coaches have the option of sleeping in air conditioned bungalows or roughing it with their campers. Runners will leave camp knowing that they are much tougher both mentally and physically than they ever imagined. If you want to grow either as an individual or if you want a true TEAM bonding experience, SWMO will do that for you.

Coaches will have the opportunity to listen to Dr. John Dougherty speak on topics from injury prevention, injury maintenance, what to do once an athlete is injured, proper footwear, and nutrition/hydration.
