Elinor Fish and Adam Chase, editors at two top U.S. running publications, Trail Runner and Running Times, are leading a unique retreat for trail runners including guided trail runs, training theory and writing about running seminars at Active at Altitude, a residential sports-training centre near Estes Park, Colorado, June 20 – 22, 2008.

Situated at 8000 feet above sea level, Active at Altitude is a bed-and-breakfast style accommodation conveniently located just 35 minutes from Boulder or a 90-minute drive from Denver International Airport.

The retreat is for runners who can already run for at least an hour at eight- to 10-minutes-per-mile pace, want to boost their fitness and learn training principles in a fun and social atmosphere. Retreat packages start at $300 and include group trail runs, seminars, morning yoga classes, a cooking class, meals and accommodation.

Elinor and Adam will conduct three seminars covering training plans, goal setting, running form, injury prevention, buying shoes and other gear, nutrition/fuelling, intervals, hill training and race strategy. In addition, the two writing seminars will provide aspiring writers with tips and tools for composing entertaining (and potentially sellable) stories for a personal blog, website or magazine.

The retreat is an enriching weekend all about healthy food, beautiful trails, fresh air and camaraderie in a beautiful and relaxing environment. On Saturday evening, Celeste Magnuson will lead a Living Foods Lifestyle class about cooking fresh, health-boosting and satisfying raw-food meals. Massages by On the River Massage’s Jacqui Chiplin will also be available at an additional cost.

Elite runners have been coming to Albuquerque since the 1960s, first simply to study at the University of New Mexico. Kenya’s Ibrahim Hussein, older brother of masters standout Mbarek, arrived at UNM in the early 1980s.
