2009 Running Retreats

Lake Tahoe

Athens, Greece

Blue Mountain, Florida

Weekend Retreat in Blue Mountain, FL, a small settlement about 20 minutes east of Destin. Our property is about a three-minute jog from the beach and a three-minute jog to a system of wonderful trails. There is a swimming pool on the property for relaxing and cooling off after a run/walk (or instead of a run/walk). Enjoy the beach, running/walking on an extensive trail system and the usually great weather!

Funky art and dinner music give way to a lively bar scene at night. Although the Red Bar is primarily a restaurant, its owners carry on the roadhouse tradition, with live music six days a week. Link
