Lake Champlain Women's Running Camp Testimonials

I had been anxious for camp from the time I received the

'gift to attend' from (my husband). But, I had no idea I would come

away with so much from the experience. I was surprised when

tears rolled down my cheeks as I sat on the airplane reflecting upon

the week. I am not typically one to cry. Camp had an emotional

impact on me and re-ignited a flame that held a mere flicker

when I arrived.

I cannot explain the transformation that took place during my week

at camp. But, I can tell you that it came at a perfect time for me and

was an experience I will never forget. My encounters at camp

will certainly impact what I do and how I approach the upcoming

years. I recommend it for all female runners reaching a milestone age

such as 30, 40, 50, or 60. It reminds you how many, many more

years you have ahead!

The RunVermont camp left such a lasting impression on me.

My soul feels cleansed. My legs feel energized.

My spirit refreshed! I just feel a renewed radiance that

is difficult to explain.

This was such a positive experience for me as a new runner!

The camp seems devoted to cultivating a community of runners

(rather than catering to an elite crowd of experienced athletes).

The coaches were patient, kind and smart. The quality of instruction

was very high. I'm really impressed by the expertise of everyone

associated with this camp. Many thanks!

The camp was fantastic - such a wonderful opportunity to meet

so many cool women who are able to balance their personal lives, work

and fitness. I  liked the small number of campers and the personalized

attention - it truly exceeded my expectations. I have reconnected

with running and feel now that I'll do even more to care for my health -

all because of you guys. I feel grounded and excited all at once!

Utterly impressed with coaches and staff- their dedication and openness

and willingness to share. Has made a huge positive impact on how I

think about my running.

---------------2004 FEEDBACK----------

I had to let you know how much I truly enjoyed running camp.

It was such a positive experience, and I learned so much.

Everyone involved added something unique...I wanted to learn

techniques to run faster, prevent injury, meet other runners and

have fun! All of these goals were met and, in fact, the

whole experience exceeded my expectations...thank you

all for a truly memorable week!

I learned so much in one week, and I can't wait for

next year!...Rather than being intimidated or feeling

competitive, this environment was so supportive regardless

of one's skill level. While I am sad that it is ending, I am

motivated, educated, and inspired.

It (the camp) not only helped increase my motivation for

running and got me to run my first ever race, but I also learned

a lot about all sorts of things from psychology to stretching to

track workouts etc. All very useful. Thanks for doing this.

Truly LOVED it, really!! Covered mind and body issues which

made the experience feel very rounded. Coaches were excellent!...

Felt like I came away from camp renewed, enthused, with a

usable plan, and references to help me remember everything.

As a beginning runner, it has helped me get started with good habits

and tools. It is very inspiring as well to be surrounded by

such a great group of women who are so willing to

share their talents. It's more than a camp and had really

made a difference in my life.

I've never been to camp before so this was a great experience. I

enjoyed having so much to do and the encouragement I

received was great!
