As we head into summer preparations for the fall cross country season, we'd like to invite you to attend the 2026 edition of the Cal Poly Humboldt Running Camp. Originally established by Hall of Fame Coach Jim Hunt, and now directed by Humboldt Hall of Fame alumnus Kevin Searls, it remains an exceptional opportunity for athletes to learn from top coaches, train in a spectacular setting, bond with teammates, and connect with peers from other schools.
Hosted on the Cal Poly Humboldt campus in Arcata, California, this year's camp will run from Sunday, July 26, through Friday, July 31. Athletes are housed in the campus dorms, take meals in the Jolly Giant cafeteria, attend seminars in the Golly Giant Commons, attend skill sessions in Lumberjack Stadium, and are transported to scenic locations for afternoon training runs.
A day at Humboldt Running Camp:
1. Morning shakeout run or alternative activation session.
2. Breakfast.
3. Morning seminar.
4. Skill session.
5. Lunch.
6. Recreation (ping-pong, pool, netball).
7. Afternoon run at scenic location (Clam Beach, Sumeg Park, Tall Trees Trail).
8. Dinner.
9. Evening seminar.
10. Daily debrief with assigned counselor.
Temperatures on the Northern California coast are typically mild compared with the scorching heat now common in the East Bay through the summer months. The cool, misty Redwood forest trails of Humboldt County offer the perfect setting for athletes to log a solid week of training at the end of their summer cycle.
Registration for Cal Poly Humboldt Running Camp is now open on their Athletics Camp Home Page.
Total fee for double occupancy is $1034.00. It is absolutely worth it!
