Coaches Clinic is available Week 1: July 29 - August 4, 2012 only
The Coaching Workshop is designed for cross country coaches without extensive academic or coaching backgrounds. It is Green Mountain Running Camp's effort to give back to the sport by offering this tuition-free workshop as an intensive short course in the art and science of coaching distance runners.
The Primary Workshop is offered from Sunday evening to Wednesday noon. During this period, participants will attend a total 13 sessions with lead instructors Roy Benson and Mike Cohen, guest speakers and additional breakout sessions with veteran staff coaches.
The Extended Workshop is designed for coaches who attend with team members and want to stay until the camp session ends on Saturday morning -- an additional 6 hours of instruction are offered during this session.
Coaches who bring 5 or more runners will earn a rebate of $20/runner.
The Workshop covers:
· Science of Effort Based Training
· Various speeds and paces of distance workouts
· Design and analysis of videotaping of running form

· Methods and Materials for Team Organization
Additional topics covered with guest speakers and breakout sessions may include:

The dates are: July 29 – August 4, 2012
