2008 Dick Beardsley Marathon Running Camp

September 2-7, 2008: Rainbow Resort, Waubun, MN

Dear Fellow Marathoners:

It’s hard to believe that we are going into our sixth year of the Dick Beardsley Marathon Running Camp! The camp continues to get better and better and has received rave reviews from past campers! This would not happen if not for the incredible staff we have and the wonderful surroundings we have for camp. This year we are partnering with Marathon & Beyond magazine, CLIF Bar, ZombieRunner.com, Balega, and New Balance to bring you an incredible week of long-distance running at Rainbow Resort in Waubun, Minnesota.

You do not have to be a world-class runner to enjoy the great physical and mental benefits that running marathons can bring you! Running has been a huge part of my life for the past 34 years, and I want to share my experiences and the experiences of our incredible coaches with all of you!

It doesn’t matter if you’re a first time marathoner or a grizzled veteran, our marathon running camp will help you reach goals and dreams that you never thought possible! Our coaches are not in one day and out the next. The coaches are in residence all week—eating, running, attending seminars, talking one on one—with all of you! In addition to myself and camp director Jan Seeley, the rest of the staff includes Rich Benyo and Rhonda Provost, Jenny Stinson, Joe Henderson, Mike Dunlap, Roy Herron, Mary Coordt, and Bill Wenmark, all remarkable people and down to earth, as you will come to find out! Our coaches not only care about your running but more importantly they also care about you! They will do their best to help make you a better runner and a better person. You all have untapped potential, and we will be there to help you unleash it!

Doug and Linda Schumann and the rest of the staff at Rainbow Resort will bend over backwards to make our stay in Northwest Minnesota the best it can be, bar none!

If you are interested in coming to the camp, I urge you to move F-A-S-T! We have set a firm limit of 35 campers. Please join us for the experience of a lifetime!

Take care and good running!

Dick Beardsley, Head Coach
