Every April  Running Crazy take over the newly laid track and brand new facilities at their ‘Running Crazy’ Exclusive Training Camp in sunny Majorca. They are resident for the whole month and so therefore you can choose for how long you wish to join us. It can be as little as 1 day or up to 3 weeks!

This is the perfect location for your ‘Training Camp’ and with the April Majorcan weather sure to be better than that back home – you will revel in the opportunities to try some new types of training. Even if it rains at least it will be warm rain! RC arrange a couple of informal competitions each week too – mainly time trials – so you can gauge your fitness levels. There is also a Half Marathon event towards the end of the month in the North of the island for those who wish to have some official competition.

These are the perfect Running Club / Charity Team breaks away, and with their good 3 Star Hotel on a half board basis just across the road, you have everything you could possibly need. The food is always great at RunningCrazy hotels and we get excellent reports from runners staying here. They can offer a 4 star hotel option if required, at a daily supplement. Many Clubs will bring their own coaches along, but RC’s qualified UK Athletics Coaches will be pleased to provide and oversee training schedules and sessions if required, free of charge. Many of their coaches are renowned Ex-International runners and athletics legends!

Each evening there will be the chance to socialise with other runners, and we will be showing educational and recreational running based films too. There is plenty going on in the local town for those who really want to let their hair down, and all in the knowledge that any excess will be worked off during training the next day! Training sessions will take place each morning and evening – and of course there will be the opportunity to take in some of the sights of the island each afternoon.

Founder and Managing Director, Malcolm Hargreaves says: ‘I believe these short breaks are ideal for runners of all abilities, and particularly useful as an excuse for a Club getaway. The chance to run in a foreign town, try some different food, experience the culture and hospitality of the local people, and all have the common goal of completingthe race, brings a certain camaraderie. These are the memories you take back after the weekend. Price is an important consideration for runners and this is why the races are at low cost airline flight destinations, but so too is the reliability of service, and knowledge that you are in safe hands’.

These events are about enjoyment – enjoying the race, enjoying the company, and enjoying talking about it for months afterwards.
