Run the World Adventures Offers Personalized Trail Running Vacations

CARBONDALE, Colo. - Sept. 23, 2014 - PRLog -- Six of the world’s top adventure-running tour companies from New Zealand, Spain, Iceland, Tanzania, Guatemala and Italy have come together to form Run The World Adventures, a  centralized service for planning a running vacation to top international trail-running destinations.

From its website, http://www.RunTheWorldAdventures.com, runners can chose from dozens of multi-day itineraries, such as a full circumnavigation of Tanzania’s Mt. Kilimanjaro, plan customized running routes along Catalonia’s Costa Brava Mediterranean coastline or link up of Iceland’s backcountry huts. With packages ranging from three to nine days and daily run distances of 6 miles to 30+ miles, there’s something for runners of all ability levels.

“We came together because we are all runners with a common view that traveling on foot is the most natural way for humans to explore this earth and its diverse culture and landscapes,” says consortium co-founder, Pablo Rodriguez. “These trips are adventures, but also your vacation, so we take care of the logistics and planning for you and you just get to run and enjoy it.”

While many of the trips take runners into remote and rugged wilderness areas, tours in Costa Brava, for example, include stays in boutique hotels, visits to castles, wineries, spas and restaurants serving Catalonia’s world-renowned cuisine.

Run the World Adventures’ most popular trips include:
         - Guatemala: 6-Day Running Adventure visiting historic Mayan sites along Lake Atitlan
         - Italy: Run hut-to-hut along the Dolomites’ famous Alta Via
         - Tanzania: Circumnavigate Mount Kilimanjaro following ancient footpaths
         - New Zealand: Traverse the South Island’s most stunning coastal and mountain parks
         - Iceland: Explore Iceland’s untamed wilderness and Europe’s most powerful waterfall, Dettifoss
         - Spain: Run from fishing village to fishing village along Costa Brava to the Pyrenees

Run the World Adventures is comprised of locally based companies that employ native guides, ensuring that guests enjoy an authentic cultural immersion in each country they visit.

“I was born on the slopes of Kilimanjaro,” says consortium so-founder and accomplished ultrarunner Simon Muty. “My team of East African guides and I are not only proud to show runners around this beautiful place, but also introduce them to its welcoming people.”

To celebrate its official launch this month, Run the World Adventures is holding a sweepstakes that will award a $1500 USD credit toward any of its trips. The sweepstakes, found at https://www.facebook.com/runtheworldadventures, launches Tuesday, September 23, 2014 and closes at midnight on Sunday, October 7, 2014. The winner will be announced on Wednesday, October 8, 2014.
