Extra Mile Youth Running Camps

Extra Mile would love to welcome any youth ages 5-13 to join our annual running camps! Led by local experienced coaches, kids will participate in 4 practices before a goal 1-mile race. These practices include running related exercises, drills, and games, and fun weekly themes!
The cost of $10 per child includes weekly practices, a camp t-shirt, and entry into the Extra Mile One Mile Challenge on July 11th.

We also aim to benefit local middle and high school cross country programs with proceeds from the One Mile Challenge. Last year we donated over $7500 back to these programs!

Our goal is to remove barriers to any child who would like to participate. It is an opportunity to introduce over 500 youth to running and cross country. We believe through this introduction kids will have a positive experience running that will carry over into their formative years.
We are expecting over 350 kids to be in attendance at the camps, and over 550 kids to participate in the One Mile Challenge. Join in on the fun at the closest camp near you! We offer Valpo, Chesterton, and Portage camps.
