HAVE YOU BOOKED YOUR PLACE YET?

I still have some spaces available on my September run retreat at the beautiful Overtown Manor in Wiltshire this September.

If you have ever fancied getting away from it all, eating gorgeous home cooked local food, enjoying the breathtaking ridgeway with guided runs and walks and meeting others then this may well be just for you!

After the success of last year, I am hosting another small group weekend from Friday 18th September to Sunday 20th September.

You will arrive on the Friday to meet the rest of the group and enjoy a 2 course delightful dinner with drinks and find out the plan for the weekend!

On the Saturday, there are trail runs to suit all abilities, countryside walks, pub lunches, exploring the Ridgeway, the opportunity to swim in the outdoor pool, education sessions and pilates with the fabulous @sambarnespilates

And as if that wasn't enough! there is another special dinner on the Saturday evening and time to chill.

On Sunday we will enjoy a bit more of the same as well as the perfect brunch before we depart.

If this sounds like the perfect getaway then drop me a message to secure one of the last few spaces and I would love to see you there!
