The Entrance running camp Nov 2016


We are taking bookings for our Summer running camp - all levels and everyone welcome. You don't have to be a rejoov runner to come on our camps. Our next runners' getaway will take place over the weekend of November 25-28 when the weather will undoubtedly be warmer than right now so get excited as this one will be very affordable, family friendly and fun.

We're hosting this running weekend at Long Jetty / The Entrance which is a lovely little central coast township 30mins past Gosford between Tuggerah Lake and the ocean.

The venue is Lakeview Tourist park. We have booked 5 x 2 bedroom spa cabins and 5 x 1 bedroom cabins with an option to book more of these. The 2 bedders have a double in one room and a set of bunks in the other. The 1 bedders have a double bed at one end of the cabin and a set of bunks at the other end. So both are set up to accommodate 4 people with the 2 bedders offering more space and luxury (as much as a cabin will afford anyhow). Check them out at www.lakeviewtouristpark.com.au

Your training weekend will involve group runs around the town, the local flat 5km Park Run Sat morning, a beach running session, core strength and stretching, long run in the nearby Wyrrabalong national park OR the Central Coast half marathon / 10k www.centralcoasthalfmarathon.com , swimming sessions, nutritional information, running technique and also training tips provided by Chris & Greta throughout the weekend. It will also allow for plenty of rest and relaxation and some great food and socialising throughout.

Costs are as follows:

- 2 bedroom spa cabin for a couple / group or a family of 3/4/5: $775 for 3 nights

- 1 bedroom cabin exclusive for a couple or a family of 3/4: $550 for 3 nights

- 1 bedroom cabin exclusive for a couple or a family of 3/4: $400 for 2 nights

- singles in a 1 bedroom cabin - based on min 3pp: $225 for 3 nights / $175 for 2 nights. 4th person (if a couple in the double) no additional charge.

Costs include accom & breakfast, all training sessions and expert advice plus snacks throughout the weekend.

Lunch and dinner (and drinks) at own expense either self cooked or at a local cafe / restaurant.

This is a great opportunity to kick start the summer training campaign in readiness for those early 2017 events.

First in with a $100 deposit will secure the very limited 5 two bedroom spa cabins so lock it away and have it to look forward to before the silly season hits in December.

Here's some more info about things to do at The Entrance: http://www.theentrance.org.au such as markets on Sat & Sun mornings etc. 

Happy training guys, please let us know your interest.

Cheers

Chris & Greta
