Set-up

All players run 2 miles at their own pace on a measured course. Record every time — this is your baseline. No pressure, but every second counts for comparison at midpoint and end.

Coaching points

  • Encourage even pacing — don't sprint the first lap and die
  • Note who competes even in a fitness test; tells you about character
  • Record times individually — compare at sessions 5 and 9

Progressions

  • At midpoint test use same route, same conditions for valid comparison
  • Final test near end of camp closes the loop on summer conditioning
