August 15 – 21, 2020 – Daily runs range from 5 – 9 miles

Explore Southern Iceland and the Highlands in a way that leaves you plenty of time to tune in to what drives you in running and in life. Indulge in a week of things that are sure to feed your soul: travel, adventure, fun, education and great food. Through our practical running form clinics, informative discussions, mindful movement and free time for quiet contemplation, you’ll stop the energy drains and divert your energy back into your running.

During this fully supported seven-day, six-night women’s trail running retreat, you’ll run each day in a different location and is as inspiring as it is breathtakingly beautiful. Rather than finish this week feeling tired, you’ll come away rejuvenated and refreshed, thanks to Iceland’s incredible wild natural beauty, fresh Arctic air, pristine water and warm hospitality.

You’ll walk its world-famous black sand beach, run within view of its fiery volcanoes and (if the weather permits) see its gleaming glaciers. Part of this retreat is set in the Highlands, where you stay in a private lodge at the Volcano Huts, nestled deep in a glacier-carved river valley. And finally, cap your week in Iceland with a luxurious soak at the world-famous Blue Lagoon geothermal hot springs, whose mineral-rich waters will soothe your muscles and joints.

Become a durable, strong, motivated runner using these tools and techniques that will keep you healthy and injury free. Immerse yourself in the powerful healing energy of this vibrant, wild landscape as you run scenic trails at a pace that is playful, relaxed and social.

• Two nights at the Midgardur Hotel, Reykjavik
