ZAP Fitness Adult Running Camps

Welcome to ZAP Fitness Adult Running Camp

Our goal with every ZAP Fitness Running Camp is to provide our campers with an intimate, informative, relaxing, as well as challenging running experience for all ages and abilities.  We offer both four day and week long running camp sessions between June and August.  Each camp will cover the same range of topics with our full week camps offering a bit more flexibility and free time; perfect for relaxing and touring the surrounding areas.

"Thank you Zika and to Pete and Ryan and the athletes as well. I've done a couple of camps and yours was by far the best. It was so well organized and the balance of running and non-running activities was perfect. The trails were awesome and I got the do my first ever mountain hike/climb. The accomodations were clean, comfortable and convenient. I've told everyone that it was oddly strenuous, yet relaxing. I will definitely consider coming to camp again."


Below are our camp dates.  Please feel free to contact us with any questions at: zapfitness@gmail.com or call 828-295-6198
