The 2020 SMIRFs Running Camp ‐ Summer Mornings Include Running Fun

Gulf Winds Track Club and the City of Tallahassee

This Summer Running Program is sponsored jointly by the City of Tallahassee Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Affairs and by Gulf Winds Track Club.  The program's goal is to provide opportunities for students in elementary, middle and early high school to improve their running skills and endurance during the summer months.  The program is recommended for students age 8 and above.

• The first day for the 2019 program is Tuesday, June 1, 2021.  We expect the last day to be Friday, July 30, 2021.

• Practices will be held Monday thru Friday and begin at 7:45 a.m.  Runners should arrive by 7:30 a.m., and start warming up.

• Practices will end between 8:45 and 9:00 a.m.

• Drop off and parking are at the Meadows Soccer Complex located at 701 Miller Landing Road.  Directions. 

Practices will include running in Elinor Klapp‐Phipps Park, which includes 670 acres of protected land along the bank and in the watershed area of Lake Jackson.  The trails are magnificent and home to many GWTC races (the Pot Luck Bash for example) and several high school cross country meets.
