What kind of runner are you?

The one who signs up for the marathon six months out and follows the training plan?

The one who’ll happily run 5km or 10km, as long as there’s good coffee afterwards?

The one looking at 50km in Kenya and thinks, “that sounds fun”?

Or the one who has absolutely no intention of running but is very happy to come for the holiday?

Run the World was never designed for just one type of runner. Across our trips there are shorter distances, marathons, an ultra, a running tour with no race at all, and plenty for partners and supporters too.

Because the point isn’t how fast or how far you run. It’s where running can take you.

Three years ago, I completed my first overseas marathon: the Bali Marathon. A memory of it popped up today, reminding me just how special it is to run a unique event overseas — and how much planning and logistics go into making it all happen.

"Bali Marathon. Toughest 1 yet. Hot, humid and 25k to 35k mostly uphill. Thankfully, 35k to finish was mostly downhill. 2am get up for a 4.30am start didn't help either. Was ready to pack it in at 10k I felt so bad, but pushed through and started to feel OK about 20k in. Atmosphere was amazing with kids lining the course at every village we went through. Can't wait for the next one!"

Don’t leave your next overseas adventure to chance — leave it to the experts! 😉

EXCLUSIVE GREEK RUNcation personally hosted by running LEGEND Dean Karnazes 🏃‍♂️

We’re beyond excited to announce an exclusive Run the World Travel Co. itinerary hosted by world-renowned Greek-American ultrarunner Dean Karnazes – and unlike any of our trips so far, this one isn’t built around a race day.

Instead, over 7 incredible nights in Athens and Hydra you’ll discover Greece at a meaningful pace:
• Guided running tours personally hosted by Dean, with walking options for friends and family
• Time on foot through Athens’ historic neighbourhoods, gardens and iconic sites
• A full-day adventure on the enchanted island of Hydra (no cars, just harbour views, laneways and coastal trails)
• Visits to Marathon, the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion, the Acropolis & Museum, and the Panathenaic Stadium – where the first modern Olympics were held
You’ll stay in luxury accommodation at the Herodion Hotel in Athens, enjoy daily breakfast and Dean’s signature “Dunch” (a hearty late lunch/dinner), Greek snacks and artisan waters, VIP touring, and receive a signed copy of Dean’s bestselling book “The Road to Sparta.”

This small-group journey is designed for:
• Runners who want to connect with the birthplace of the marathon and explore Greece by foot.
• Curious travellers and partners who prefer light to moderate activity, rich storytelling and immersive culture
• Non-runners who want to walk, wander and soak up Greece while their runner joins Dean on the jogs

📍 Athens & Hydra, Greece
📅 30 May – 6 June 2027
👥 Strictly limited group, exclusively with Run the World Travel Co.

If you’ve ever dreamed of exploring Greece while running, this is your chance. Bookings go on sale very soon, with the full trip live on our website within the next two weeks!

Big day out with the Run The World Travel Co. crew at the Sunshine Coast Marathon! We were lucky enough to be in the VIP tent, thanks to race sponsors, EVA Airways. Four mates took on both the full and the half marathons, with another mixed bag of results, ranging from pulling out with injury to a 1st in Age Group!

I ran my first half marathon in my Li Ning carbon race shoes which I picked up in China after Conquer The Wall Marathon earlier this year. Awesome shoe - super spongy, really comfortable, and perfect for a hard but fun hit-out. If you’re keen to explore Chinese running shoe brands and line them up with bucket-list races, keep following for our Conquer the Wall Marathon event to China in May next year!

Huge thanks to EVA Airways Corp. 長榮航空 and the Sunshine Coast Marathon Festival team for an epic day and VIP hospitality.
