The Basics…

“Altitude is an extreme environment! You must be prepared!”

The Big Bear Marathon Training Camp will be held up at 6,750 feet in beautiful Big Bear Lake, CA right on and around the actual Marathon course. Whether you are a beginner or elite athlete our camp will prepare you for success that you want to achieve in participating in the 1st annual Big Bear Marathon.

We will be coaching you on running and racing in high altitude, including acclimatization, hydration and nutrition concerns. We will be conducting specific course overviews of the marathon and half marathon distances with the race directors.

Plus, we’ll cover many marathon basics. We’ll discuss supplemental training, injury prevention and running specific strengthening techniques too. Our goal is to provide both the marathon fundamentals and race specific strategies you will need to know to be prepared for race day so your experience in Big Bear will be one to remember!
