Coach Brad Cheek, Independence High School TN
“Our experience at Wake Forest Camps of Champs was inviting, engaging, and challenging for athletes of all ability levels. The relationships and knowledge that the kids will take away will last well beyond the time spent at the camp. The Wake Forest xc staff really cares about teaching the kids and creating an experience beneficial for the growth and development of each athlete. Counselors consist of some of the top collegiate runners who all took a small group of athletes under their wings. The day we got back from camp, I received multiple emails from parents telling me how much their child enjoyed it”
Coach John LePino, UNC - Greensboro
“Any high schooler who wants to learn what it really takes to run at the next level should consider this camp. If you enter with a growth mindset and a willingness to learn you will take lessons away that can help shape the rest of your running career. Very few running camps will have as much of a lasting effect on an athlete as this one will.”

“To my enjoyment, I had the privilege of attending Wake Forest Camp of Champs this past summer, and it was a life changing experience! I learned a lot, had a lot of fun with so many cool people from around the country, and was impressed with your program. I also really enjoyed the nature and beauty of campus - it is truly something special! I was also honored to meet some of the athletes while I was there. It was so encouraging to see how they managed both high level training and the college experience, and hearing about their performances through Wake was so inspiring!”

Male Athlete:
It was a very well done camp, I had a lot of fun and more importantly I learned a lot about myself and got the chance to reflect on myself as a runner and as a person, being at this camp reminded me why I love the sport. I got the chance to meet and run with a lot of great people and learned so much and gained tons of new info to continue my running career, thank you for the wonderful opportunity to run and push myself at camp this summer.

Female Athlete:
This camp was phenomenal. I knew it was going to be a little bit tough coming in slightly injured and haven’t running much this summer because of it, but I left extremely motivated to be a better runner and person. Even though I’m mostly cross training at the moment, I loved how much I learned about running at this camp and I think it is some of the most useful information that I’ve heard throughout high school sports! Im looking forward to this season and would love to maybe do the thunder road running athlete testing in the future!
