Join us in person this July in Naperville, Illinois for our Chicago Area Wildwood Running Clinic! We are excited to bring coaches and athletes together to continue our journey to empower the young female distance runner! This year we will have 1.5 days of programming for the coaches and 1 day for the athletes!
Together we will bring expert speakers from across the country together to support girls in running as well as their coaches! We are excited as this year our clinic has a new format! We believe the content developed will challenge all participants to grow as well as provide applicable tools that can be immediately added to any program.
This year's clinic will have the coach clinic and the athlete clinic run tandem to one another with one joint session for the two groups. We created this opportunity so coaches and athletes can attend together, creating a retreat or camp-like feel.
