This running company was founded by running buddies Sam & Nikki.
Together, they’ve spent many years organizing trail running holidays for themselves and their pals, and have tackled some major challenges, including the Everest Marathon, Nepal, the Transrockies Run, USA, and several races from the famous Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc series.
Their experience and expertise are matched only by their enthusiasm and love for running. The girls’ passion for the outdoors brought them to Chamonix, in the French Alps, where they have teamed up with a handful of professional mountain enthusiast's who you may meet on some of our trips.
Welcome to Morocco! Arrive at Menara airport, Marrakech airport and take a taxi to your Riad in Marrakech. Take some time to explore the souks and the Medina. At dinner on the first evening, you’ll meet your guides and leaders for the trip. Our team will brief everyone on the routes, weather conditions and requirements for the following days, and answer any questions. Dinner included.
After breakfast, we will take a transfer to Imil (approx. 1 hour). We'll hit the trails to stretch out the legs, and adjust to our new climate, running across rocky farmland, over the hills and back to our accommodation in lmlil. Around 10km in total. Expected time on trails: 1-2 hours. Breakfast and dinner included.
After a hearty breakfast, and a final kit check get ready to take on the trails for a second day.

Dinner tonight will be a rustic affair and you'll hopefully sleep like a log up this high. Expected time on trails: 5-6 hours. Breakfast and dinner included.
This is your big mountain day! We'll head out early to summit Mount Toubkal, returning to the hut for lunch and running back down to Imlil for a well-deserved rest.

All of the hotels that we use are centrally located, clean and comfortable. On some itineraries where we visit remote areas, we stay in mountain huts up in the hills. Mountain huts are often ‘rustic’ but comfortable, with excellent local food on offer. We will be staying in shared rooms or dormitories. Hot showers are available, and usually a change of shoes, so you can leave your dirty trail shoes at the door. Rooms at the hotel are twin share, but single rooms can be booked for an additional supplement. Please note that in most mountain huts, single rooms are not available.
We recommend packing one set of running kit per day, with warm and cold options, plus a change of clothes for each evening. It can be cold in the evenings and even during the day, particularly when we are up high in the mountains. A lightweight running pack with the ability to carry water & other necessary items, plus a good quality waterproof jacket (gore-tex or equivalent) are also required. For each trip, we will send you a list of essential items and a suggested packing list. Please contact us if you have any concerns about what you need to bring on one of our trips.
We recommend trail-running shoes for all of our trips as they have more grip and are better suited to mountain terrain and variable conditions. Please contact us if you need any advice on purchasing kit for our trips.
We work closely with local hotels, restaurants and mountain refuges to ensure they understand and cater to specific diets. Just let us know at the time of booking and we will do all we can to make sure that your requirements are met. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
