Camp Description:
We are excited to offer an introductory biathlon camp for adult runners! Running biathlon is sport for those who thrive on challenge! It combines two completely different disciplines: the heart-pounding exertion of running and the zen-like focus of precision shooting.
This camp is designed for runners who have little or no prior shooting experience and are open to trying something new (including those who joined us last year and are looking to expand their skills.) You’ll learn from Craftsbury’s experienced biathletes and coaches. We’ll teach you rifle safety, provide all the necessary equipment for biathlon shooting, instruct you in proper shooting techniques and give you opportunities to test your new skills including a fun, novice biathlon race. Running Biathlon for Beginners will also include all your favorite elements of a Craftsbury running camp such as running-specific coaching, endless gravel roads, amazing community, dips in Great Hosmer, and of course incredible food from our renowned dining hall.
