Event summary
Organiser's Description
Designed for people who enjoy running regularly, this is an opportunity to spend a weekend in a beautiful part of the World, doing what you love. We’re located on the beautiful Pentire headland, near Newquay, in Cornwall, where you’ll meet guests of a similar mindset, and be immersed in a healthy lifestyle of eating tasty, nutritious food and exercising in the great outdoors amid stunning scenery.
Our runs along gorgeous winding coastal trails are complimented by bootcamps focusing on run-specific muscles and yoga designed to stretch out those muscles and increase ranges of movement to supplement your running. You can even have a swim in the Gannel Estuary to soothe those muscles and feel the benefit on recovery.
Runs range from 5 to 15km (or longer for anyone who is keen for more!) and are suitable for people who can run 10k in under an hour. All bootcamp and swimming abilities are suitable. All activities are optional. 9-12 October.

Preparation
To get the most out of this weekend, we recommend a little planning ahead. The more you can do, the more you’ll get out of it. Extra training beforehand is no bad thing! This will also give you a chance to test out any kit you have such as clothes and footwear to make sure it does the right job for you and you feel comfortable.
We’ll send you a full kit list when you book, and if you want to talk to us about anything, please do get in touch.
