Adrian Davis Scottish International Hill runner and mountain marathon runner is the leader of our running holidays and is a UK Athletics coach, first aider, and Scottish international runner, with extensive experience of road and mountain marathons and adventure races.

Wildoutdoors running holidays and weekends offer an enjoyable training environment in which to explore new countryside with experienced guides and coaches. We offer courses for beginners on our Jogscotland weekends to club and elite athletes, from junior to veteran level. We have over 8years' experience in delivering these courses and have a working relationship with Scottish Athletics and jogscotland. Our team includes Adrian Davis, sports masseur, Dave Lewis, ex-English National Cross country champion, Louise Craig, swedish masseur and runner and Angela Mudge, ex-World Champion hill runner and sports masseur to give you the best advice and coaching. We also have a team of physiotherapists to help you through the longer week courses.

Previous events have been very warmly received. Our customers say:

"We had a brilliant time and it met all our expectations" A Nightingale 2006

"Great weekend - really useful" J Shortreed 2006

We also operate an introduction to off-road, fell and adventure racing over hills, mountain and fell country. This includes:

  • Introduction to fell running and hill navigation

  • Preparation and training for mountain marathons

Our navigation weekends give training and advice on orienteering and map reading for those who would like to improve their mountain navigation skills. We cover distances from 3 to 20 miles depending on group ability and requirements. Speed is not important although we will endeavour to improve your running so you get the best out of our weekend. A typical weekend consists of:

  • A short, easy run Friday night and assessment of the groups ability

  • Short interval session if required. Afternoon physiotherapy and massage talk, a walk and simple orientation exercise

  • Long Sunday run/walk from 30 mins to 2 hours depending on ability

  • Depart Sunday lunchtime

We can arrange a weekend or holiday at any time in many locations specifically to meet your needs. Group or club discounts available. We are only a phone call away.

  • Price includes individual assessments, training regimes, race and season planning, massage, coaching and advice

  • Cost includes all accommodation, food (half board), and travel during the week of the holiday

  • Runners must be over 18 years of age unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian

  • The cost of the travel to the holiday destination (eg. Flights or car/rail travel) is not included in our holiday price
