Running Holidays and Running Breaks in Spain
Hi Steve
First and foremost our runinthesun holidays are " holidays" for people who enjoy running, as can be seen from our gallery of races page.
We have all levels of ability at runinthesun. We have had ultra runners, marathon runners and middle distance track runners, all training with us on the Costa Blanca.
Many of our guests, train between 10 and 35 miles a week and do not belong to any club and have entered few races. Indeed the majority of Runners / Guests
have taken this as a holiday with running activities included, not a training camp. Many of the guests run in the morning and relax on the beach the rest of the day.
We are 800m from the beach and this has made the decision for a lot of runners and their families, who are looking to combine a holiday with running and fitness activities, which may include Yoga, pilates, and spinning at the local fitness centre.
Any schedule during the holiday is based upon the guests present training programme, although many did not have a training schedule but a love for running and the pleasure it brings.
Most guests are running 10k in between 44 and 57min. No one has run quicker than 40min and none slower than 60min.
I write running schedules for guests to take away and will help with these for 3 months after their break.
The relaxed atmosphere, and running leaves guests "charged, motivated" for their return home. Indeed many have entered races and e mailed me their results.
I hope this gives you an indication of the variety of runner, we have had here at runinthesun.
All the best
