Our business intends to be accommodating, thoughtful and original, at arm’s length from the blandness of a standard corporate event. We will aim to deliver this in a relaxed, approachable style, using our own strengths, rather than those borrowed from a marketing manual. Our USP is based on our wellspring of experience and ours alone, which can’t be replicated elsewhere. We strive to be environmentally and ecologically conscious and to connect with our community through all of our initiatives and we will partner with similar minded or

Great experience, lovely group and activities, great balance between chilled and organised, mainly down to the charming personalities of the organisers. Food provision could be improved as it's important to fuel during a long weekend of running and hiking, I didn't have enough to eat at the cooked meals. Loved the local knowledge and experiences, making the camp a very holistic experience. Very accommodating of varies abilities and preferences.

Running was just an excuse to be there, for me this camp was about meeting like minded people to interact with and have fun, carefully curated by an experienced running guru with his own tales to tell.

I had a good time. I really enjoyed the fell running. The Southern Lakes is a beautiful area.

A great weekend away with a fab group of people. A good physical workout, and an ideal way to unwind mentally from the rat race. I will definitely come to another one in the future.

I attended the Wales yoga and running weekend in November. Relaxed, inclusive of all abilities and restorative. Ceri fostered a friendly atmosphere which brought the group together. Some beautiful and challenging runs with Ceri, and we were also accompanied by knowledgeable local guides. I look forward to the next one.

Recently took part in wilid runnings trail weekend with my partner near Brecon. A great weekend with some great people . The sceanery was stunning and Ceri was always on hand to offer advice , Also so was Liz . The trip is for all abilities,however it's in the black mountains / Brecon beacons so there is no hiding from the elevation. Do not let that put you off though ,no one is left behind no matter if you run wallk or crawl to the top . It's a relaxed environment and no pressure . Well done ceri and Liz we both had a great weekend thanks .

Over the past few years I have attended several Wild Running camps on Dartmoor and in the Brecon Beacons. They have all been filled with great running and yoga, fabulous scenery, delicious food and interesting company. Ceri creates a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and is brilliant at accommodating all levels of running ability. He has many interesting insights into all aspects of running and links with the worlds of literature and journalism. Ceri is the only person I know who has written a poem about one of their events! He also a genuine interest and awareness of issues going beyond running, especially inclusivity, diversity and environmental responsibility. Probably because of this his camps tend to attract other interesting and thoughtful people and create memorable conversations and lasting friendships. I look forward to being back on another Wild Running camp very soon.
