​
Coach Hugo is a former elite runner, as well as a human movement scientist, with more than 30 years of experience in running. He has been coaching elite and amateur runners since 2010, and is regarded by many as an absolute running expert. Coach Hugo is very hands-on during the camps and loves to share his knowledge with our guests.
​
During all our runs we are accompanied be Kenyan pacers who are local athletes that run with our guests, guide them and talk with them.
​
Your stay includes accommodation and full-board at the Hub, which is a professional training center, used by amateur and elite runners from around the world.
​
What do we do?
As a guest of Kenya Camp, you are fully taken care of. This starts already before arrival: coach Hugo will contact you to discuss your training experience, goals and needs, in order to maximize the benefit from your two weeks stay in Kenya.
There will be several running related seminars, packed with information that will help bring your running to the next level. Whether it comes to training rules, how to get a winning mindset, or nutrition, there is nothing running related that our coaches can’t answer. Our coaches are always available to answer your questions and to guide you in your running journey. Personal attention is key for us.
We finish our camp with a farewell lunch at the Kerio View restaurant, with beautiful views over the Great Rift Valley, before being taken back to the airport by our drivers.
On your day of arrival, you are picked up (from Eldoret airport) by one of our drivers and taken to your accommodation in Iten. For the next two weeks, all the transport, accommodation and food will be included in your stay. This also includes several restaurant lunches.
You will meet every morning for training, with our team of professional coaches and pacers. There will be easy runs, trail runs, longruns, and several types of workouts, as well as strength sessions. All sessions are done on the same venues as where the Kenyan elites are training; the local track, the forest, the dirt roads and the famous Moi Ben road. There is the option to have a second training session on most days.
Each camp has an exciting itinerary with activities such as Q and A sessions with (elite) runners, a visit to a traditional Kalenjin house, a wildlife safari, a performance by local dancers, or a visit to a the world famous St. Patrick’s high school and museum, to name a few.
