2022 Running Camp
The best cross country camp and steeplechase workshop in the country returned in 2022 after a two-year hiatus due to the Covid pandemic. While the number of campers was modest relative to pre-pandemic attendance, the experience was exceptional, with perfect training conditions and outstanding speakers throughout the week.

Coach Hunt sings "Happy Birthday" to a camper. With the Humboldt track under construction, the daily skill work goes indoors, using the Lumberjack field house. The annual steeplechase race is salvaged with creative use of a baby pool. Kevin Searls is unimpressed with the height of the giant redwood at the end of the Tall Trees trail.
