Is housing included? If not, where do you suggest I stay when I come for the camp?
Housing is not included in the Running Getaway - Flagstaff. We know that many campers have preferences on their stay (types of lodging, rewards program hotels, etc.) and Flagstaff, being the Gateway to the Grand Canyon, has over 70 hotels and inns (including several bed and breakfasts) to choose from. A list of hotels can be found here and we recommend West Flagstaff and Downtown hotels or Bed and Breakfasts which will be closer to where we'll meet for runs and talks.Is airfare included? If not, what's the best way to get to Flagstaff?
Airfare is not included in the Running Getaway - Flagstaff since many past campers preferred to arrange their own airfare when traveling. Most campers fly into Flagstaff (airport code FLG) or Phoenix (airport code PHX). If you fly into Flagstaff, you can take a taxi to your hotel or rent a car at the airport. If you fly into Phoenix, you can rent a car and drive up to Flagstaff (very scenic drive, by the way) or you can take the van shuttle that runs from the Phoenix airport to Flagstaff. Schedules for the van shuttle are available online.I'm not a fast runner, is the camp for me?
The adult running camps are for anyone who wants to improve as a distance runner, no matter where you finish in the pack. Coach Greg is known for his ability to help ALL runners and his goal is to help each camper leave with a better idea of how to plan/adjust his/her training for better results.I have a few questions, can I contact you?
