Destinations
Bermuda
We hope that many of you can escape your winter training grounds to enjoy the island charm of this British colony. You have your choice of the marathon, half-marathon on Sunday or the 10K on Saturday. Or you can participate in the 7th Bermuda Triangle Challenge. Run the KPMG Bermuda Invitational Mile…
Costa Brava
The Costa Brava; “Wild” or “Rough Coast” is a coastal region of northeastern Spain, in the province of Girona. The Costa Brava stretches from Blanes, 60 km (37 mi) northeast of Barcelona, to the French border. The area has a combination of a good climate, natural trails, excellent beaches and currently a favorable foreign exchange rate which makes Spain a relatively inexpensive tourist destination.
Haute Route
The Hiker’s Haute Route links the villages of the Mont Blanc region and the western Swiss Valais, crossing through the highest mountain range in western Europe, the Pennine Alps. Hike with us through two distinct cultural regions, the French speaking and German speaking Alps. Starting in the bustling alpine center of Chamonix, France beneath the dramatic flanks of Europe’s highest summit, Mont Blanc and its spectacular Aiguilles, you will hike eastward into Switzerland and cross the Valais by a number of high passes that connect many small villages. Finish in the incomparable Zermatt set beneath the soaring pyramidal flanks of the Matterhorn.
Havana
Havana, Cuba’s colorful capital, is known for the Spanish colonial architecture of its 16th-century Old Havana core, including Castillo de la Real fort, now a maritime museum, and the pre-revolutionary Capitolio. 1950s American-made cars line the city’s streets and rumba groups play in the painted alley Callejón de Hamel. Salsa emanates from clubs and cabaret is still performed at the famed Tropicana.
Japan
Japan is an island nation in the Pacific Ocean with dense cities, imperial palaces, mountainous national parks and thousands of shrines and temples. Shinkansen bullet trains connect the main islands of Kyushu (with Okinawa's subtropical beaches), Honshu (home to Tokyo...
Médoc
The Médoc is a region of France, well known for it’s wine growing, located on the left bank of the Gironde estuary, north of Bordeaux. Its name comes from Medullicus, or “country of the Medulli”, the local Celtic tribe. The region owes its economic success mainly to the production of red wine; it is home to around 1,500 vineyards.
Sedona
Sedona Arizona is consistently voted one of the most beautiful places in the world and our Chief Runner, Joe Gigas, lives there and has decided to extend an invitation to come run and hike trails in the area with him during the cool mornings. There will also be time for sightseeing in northern Arizona if you should wish to experience Sedona’s beauty once in awhile!
