Distances Run

To get the best out of your running holiday ideally you do need to be able to run 10km. This is the daily minimum distance of any of our runs. Please see our daily itineraries for each place visited to give you an idea of what length runs are available each day. But remember its all flexible ! If you want to run 10km, 20km or more each day I can accommodate your requests. Only want to run in the mornings ? Not a problem. Its all about having fun and enjoying the trails.

**Trails**: a huge percentage of the runs are along trails, not tarmac or concrete !! This makes for much more interesting running, seeing the countryside, travelling on foot between little hamlets on ancient pathways. Yes of course when we pass through villages and hamlets there will be sections of lanes, but we are all about the trails and lesser travelled paths !
