Our multi-stage running camp week in Lanzarote has come to an end. We had so much fun!!! Here we just tackled a ridge to reach the summit of a volcano! 😬💪🌋 We had 4 ability based groups with all levels from walkers to those who may go on to podium in their next race, and what a fantastic group of people we had this year: friendly, enthusiastic, positive and hard working. If you fancy joining for next year the dates are 7th to 14th January 2020. Suitable for anyone wanting to prepare for a multi-stage ultra or just gain more confidence on the trails for longer distances. 📸-> @my_running_adventures . . . . . #coach #stagerace #runningcamp #trainingcamp #islascanarias #canaryislands #trainingisfun #ultracoach #runningcoach #trainingcamp #running #trailrunning #ultra #myracekit #enjoyyouradventure
The Canary Islands may not be far from each other but each one has its very own character. Back in Lanzarote with its unforgiving, sharp, black lava rocks and sandy coastal trails. Here able to enjoy a beautiful sunset from the top of a volcano! Feeling privileged to look after another running group this week and showing what this island has to offer along the coast. Volcano hill reps is on the menu! 😬🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ 📸-> @iancorlessphotography . . . . . #lanzarote #sunset #sunsetrun #sunsetrunning #coach #runningcoach #trailrunning #runner #ultracoach #trainingcamp #runningcamp #marathondessables #stagerace #training #canaryislands #islascanarias #runningphotography
Time to leave one island and on to the next! From Gran Canaria’s mountains and pine forests to Lanzarote’s black, lava lined coastline to play in the sand and on the volcanoes. Tomorrow we start our multi-stage trail run camp. It’s my 4th year on this camp and I love it every time. I look forward to welcoming another lovely group and to helping them prepare for their next adventure. 📸-> @sondreamdahl . . . . . #trailrunning #runningcamp #lanzarote #ultrarunning #coaching #runningcoach #coachinglife #enjoyyouradventure #training #running #runner #canaries #canaryislands #grancanaria

Today was an amazing 1st day of camp. Tomorrow won’t disappoint either as we’ll have this view for part of a long run.

Hello 2019! 👋 This year is about a fresh outlook, new perspectives and new opportunities. I have a new business partner, I celebrate one year on a plant based diet, I will move to a new home and I will get married. I also feel highly motivated to take a fresh approach to running with more independence. So, bring on this exciting year! 📸-> @sondreamdahl . . . . . #happynewyear #change #changeisgood #newoutlook #running #runner #ultrarunner #livelife #plantbased #enjoyyouradventure #sziols #runningcoach #coaching #myracekit #newhorizons #grancanaria
