Your Experience

As the “Official Accommodation Partner” of England Athletics, we’ve paired up to bring England Athletics members a unique training experience set on the beautiful Portuguese coast and hosted by EA’s own top coaches.

After a cold, dark, dank British winter, the glorious sunshine and sandy beaches of the Algarve are the perfect place to fine-tune your spring marathon training or just to run. One morning you’ll be heading out a testing cliff top trail run, the next it’ll be an easy recovery jog along the vast expanse Felesia beach or a speedier session on a traffic-free circuit between the orange groves. In the afternoon you’ll be on the track focusing on technique or down at the nearby European Cross-Country course for a speed or hill session.

You’ll have access to our excellent group of coaches throughout as well as our fitness trainer and physio. The evenings will be a mix of coach-led talks and lectures or group social activities.

The Running Programme

On most days there are two daily running sessions, an easy early morning run with a quality session in the afternoon, either on the track at the Victoria or on the nearby cross-country circuit. In between there are stretching, core stability, yoga and Pilates sessions and in the evening there are talks and presentations on a variety of subjects from optimum nutrition to race plans and discipline.

One day is designated as a long run day and there is no afternoon session on that day and there will also be a chance to test yourself in a 5K race on one of the mornings. We will be using a number of regular routes for the early morning routes, a mix of tarmac, hard packed off-road trails or sandy beach. All the routes, including the one designated for the long run day have laps or options to shorten or extend the runs depending on individual needs or requirements.

On most mornings after breakfast you can book a one-to-one session with one of the coaches staying at your hotel, to discuss your general training, fine tune your programme or seek more general advice and how to improve your training. You can also book a private session with the physio/masseur if you have any minor aches or niggles that need treating.
