BALTIMORE, MD - Johns Hopkins track and cross country head coach Bobby Van Allen announces the 2012 Blue Jay Elite Distance Camp. The camp is scheduled for July 23-26 on the campus of Johns Hopkins University.

The Blue Jay Elite Distance Camp is a unique camp that combines a fun and energetic experience with a serious approach to becoming an elite distance runner. Rather than simply playing games and running, the camp will teach the many facets of what it takes to maximize one’s potential for those looking to compete as distance runners at the collegiate level. The camp will consist of numerous activities, a tubing trip down the Gunpowder River, and a wide variety of training sessions at various parks and within the facilities of Johns Hopkins University. Other sessions will include but are not limited to core training sessions, physiology classes on distance training principles, proper aqua jogging instruction, plyo circuits, weight training for distance runners, as well as a gait analysis by physical therapist Josh Billings.
