‘Running Crazy Ltd’ have secured 3 * Hotel accommodation on a Half Board basis at a hotel right alongside the finish line. This is ideal for changing and showering facilities.

November in Majorca can be delightful. Perfect for running – here are the figures:-

• humidity:  75% (at 0700 hrs) 65% (at 14.00 hrs)

Entertainment:

This time of year in Majorca means you may still get a couple of days on the beach. If not there is still plenty of sights to take in, including Palma, Puerta Portals, or further north to Valdemossa. There are ample bars, cafes and restaurants and of course the ‘Running Crazy Ltd’ after race party will take some beating.

Groups:

This trip offers a great opportunity for Clubs or training partners to get together. Travelling together may also be more convenient and fun too. There are discounts available for large groups (20+), but even just a group of 10 will qualify for a prize for the first or last in your group to finish (you choose).

Prices:

This is another great value trip away. Prices are from as little as £85 for a weekend, and as an example a 3 night stop would cost the runner £135, and the non-runner just £117. Great prices – great value!
