BESPOKE GUIDED RUNNING ADVENTURES

BESPOKE GUIDED RUNNING ADVENTURES

Book a bespoke guided running adventure either in the Chilterns or the French Alps with Run the Wild to tailor a running holiday or adventure to you.

It’s a great way to create the running adventure you want. Bespoke adventures make excellent gifts for the runner in your life, or indeed for yourself! From 1 hour mini adventures to multi-day trips in the Alps, we can help you recce race routes, create birthdays to remember, or set up a trip for your running club. We can tailor your time with us to cover running technique, gait, discuss training plans, navigation, kit, race planning and nutrition.  It’s a great way to boost your confidence in running somewhere new and approaching new terrain. 

UK GUIDING

From 1hr to multi-day trips, you can arrange a running adventure in the Chilterns with access to great trails through the undulating chalk hills and local woods. Each of our UK Lead Runners are either English Athletics Coaches, Run Leaders or Physical Trainers. The Chilterns is a beautiful area with great access by road and rail and only 30 minutes from London.

All our guides are qualified, know the local area and are passionate about trail running. We can also arrange accommodation if you would like to stay in the local area, with options ranging from the 5* spa hotel of Champney’s Tring and The Grove to some lovely local inns.

The cost for this service is £55 for 1 hour, £140 for 0.5 day for up to 2 runners or £210 for 1 day for up to 4 runners. Chat to us about bigger groups or if you would like help in arranging any accommodation.

ALPS GUIDING

The Alps have breath taking balcony paths and incredible running adventures that can last as long as you can run! We can tailor them to suit all abilities, so if you can run 10km, you can run in the Alps!

Chamonix is the mecca for trail running and sits at the foot of Mt Blanc which provides a stunning backdrop for any trail run. There are many route options around the area which provide a great introduction for a beginner or test the veteran. The trails vary from pine woods to rocky exposed routes, something for everyone. There are also many accommodation options to suit all budgets. This option is perfect for reccing race routes such as the UTMB series, celebrating an event or just getting away with friends and family.

Your local guide will be a fully qualified International Mountain Leader, locally licensed as well as experienced trail runner. Running in the Alps is a great way to experience an activity holiday tailored to you. Book with other non-runners in your life and they can still explore Chamonix whilst you head out on an adventure! We will help with any accommodation requirements.

The cost for this service is €175 for 0.5 day or €285 for 1 day for up to 2 runners. Chat to us about bigger groups or if you would like us to help arrange your accommodation as well.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

“As newbies to using running poles, we arranged a bespoke Running Pole Workshop with Run the Wild to learn how to use and get the best out of our poles on our forthcoming trail challenges. Simon was a great instructor and it was definitely a worthwhile session. I would certainly recommend signing up to or arranging a workshop with them.”

“Professionally run tours, engaging instructors, good people. I’ve attended two Run the Wild events and had two private tuition sessions; each of these have been as described, well organised and run at a pace that’s engaging and intuitive for a range of experiences. Karin and Simon are genuinely passionate about running and are easy to talk to. I would highly recommend Run the Wild for weekend trips and Alpine epics.”

“I enjoyed a great couple of days running on the trails in Chamonix and the surrounding area, led by guide Bruno. Bruno was clearly very experienced and knowledgeable of the local area. He was really friendly and made me feel very comfortable. The communication with Run The Wild from the start was efficient, and Simon was really keen to organise a bespoke trip tailored to my experience and wishes. Wouldn’t hesitate to book a trip with Run The Wild again!”

“My wife and I booked a guided trail run with Simon at Run The Wild and it was an amazing experience. We are relatively new converts from road running to trail running and Simon gave us an amazing amount of insight on technique, hints and tips. Simon was a great guide – friendly, knowledgeable and professional. It was a fantastic experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Simon and Run The Wild.”

“A thoroughly enjoyable half day where I was encouraged to dictate the pace, ask any questions and learn some really good tips. At no time did I feel under pressure to be an expert trail runner. It was all about encouragement to experience trail running safely.”
