Lanzarote Training Camp – January 9th to 16th, 2025

The 2025 Lanzarote Training Camp taking place from January 9th to 16th, 2025 is open for booking.

If you love running, this is the camp for you!

Located at the iconic Club La Santa resort, our training camp will provide you with all the knowledge, experience and practical training you need to make your next adventure a success.

Hosted by Ian Corless, the training camp is the perfect place to hone your skills for stage racing, fast-packing and running in general.

The purpose of any training camp is to provide you with specific information and training designed specifically to help you with your future objectives, be that a single-stage race, stage race or a personal adventure.

We specifically cater for training and information for MDS events.

Although you may run (train) more in this condensed week, it’s not designed to break you! Therefore, all training sessions are flexible and you can dip-in and dip-out as required. 

Most importantly, just as in any race, we will have a very mixed ability base. You will therefore train at your appropriate pace with like minded people.

All abilities catered for.

Each day will be broken down into one or two specific training sessions, one workshop and leisure time. Lanzarote offers a variety of terrain; soft-sand, technical trail, ridges, climbs, descents and wonderful flowing single-track. With an epic coastal backdrop, there is something for everyone.

Lanzarote Training Camp 2019 – Day 1

Day 1 on the Lanzarote Multi-Day Training Camp and the usual sunny and warm Canaria weather deserted us with some strong winds and the occasional rain shower. It’s all about perspective though and as one runner said, “It’s considerably better than being at home or at work!”

The morning session was a 22km out and back run to the coastal town of Famara. Groups were split into 4 ability based groups:

Sondre Amdahl leading the ‘speedy runners.

Elisabet Barnes leading a mixed group of runners.

Inge Nijkamp leading group 3.

Ian Corless leading a walk / run group.

The camp is all about finding a natural balance that provides the participants with a comfortable and solid group that provides the perfect stimulus from which to progress.

A break for lunch and then the afternoon kicked off with a stunning talk by Running Reborn Coach, Shane Benzie. He discussed all the aspects, through practical demonstration, that make us better runners.

Groups were then split into 2. 

Group 1 went to the run track with Shane for a practical workshop. Shane individually filmed runner and gave guidance on improving technique.

Group 2 had an easy 8km run.

As always, the evening RnR process is all about getting together for a social drink and evening meal.

It was a great start to the 2019 camp!
