Anybody going to his camp this summer at UW-Parkside? I'm debating between the Wisconsin Champions Camp

) and the Chris Solinsky Camp (http://www.smarttrainingandracing.com/).
Has anybody been to the Wisconsin Camp and have any insight on if it is worth it. Who are the counselors? What activities outside of running related stuff do you do?
Went to Wisconsin's camp back in 2006 as an freshman in high school. Was on a Frisbee team that Solinsky coached. Fast forward 9 years i'm now about to graduate college, damn i'm old.
My take the Wisconsin camp is awesome. You have athletes from the team as your counselors and there is a ton of fun stuff to do in Madison. The camp had dances, ultimate Frisbee, good food, and good looking girls. You get to go bowling, swimming, cruising state street, etc. There is a good deal of running, twice a day, and presentations on running but plenty of time for fun. I hooked up for the first time with a girl at this camp. The dorm life was wild and pranks were always happening. We stayed up late and woke up early but had a blast.
I'm sure the Solinsky camp will be amazing. I don't know so I can't compare the two but I would not trade camp experience as a high schooler. It was so much fun so go to either and you will have a blast.
I'm too old to go to either of the two camps but if I was going to choose i'd love to go to Chris's camp as he is one of my idols. Wonder why he choose to do a camp at Parkside instead of UW-Madison or W&M.
Went to camp of champs 3 years ago. Awesome time, you really meet a lot of runners there and its a pretty cool experience if kids are looking at D1. The runners at wisconsin are chill guys and great to learn from.
Will there be any Counselors at the Madison camp? Half the team is injured.
Go to CoC.
I have not been to either camp but the things that you liked about spending a week in Madison cannot be replicated at Parkside. The campus is one of those mid 1960s buildings-in-a-park settings where there is no connection to the community.
Park side has a great cross country course but I wouldn't want to live there. Not even for a week.
