We are more than a running camp.
We give you an experience you'll never forget
Kenya Camp
A Running Camp In The Home of Champions
Are you like us and do you love to run, eat delicious food, travel and socialise with like minded people? And are you, at the same time, looking for an amazing experience in the Home of Champions? We have lived in Iten since 2007 and are still in awe about the magic of it. This is why we started Kenya Camp. To share that experience with runners from all over the world, no matter their level.
We give you a world class training experience, running daily on the Kenyan roads, guided by professional coaches and paced by Kenyan runners. And we take care of you, no matter what your running pace is!
Next to that, we offer you a unique itinerary of seminars, meetings, and cultural activities, all in a very safe environment. You get to meet and talk with Kenyan runners, and experience the real Kenya. For example, back in 2012 we started Kibet4Kids foundation to help impoverished children, and we will take you to one of our schools/projects.
For Who?
Our camps are for runners of all levels, and from all over the world. Whether you can run a 10K in one hour or less than 40 minutes, a marathon in 4-5 hours or under 3 hours, you are all welcome. The only requirement is that you love running. However, you can get most benefit from your Kenya Camp trip if you are able to run at least 3 times per week.
Are you simply looking for a comfortable place to stay in Iten, without joining a full organised running camp? Check out the guesthouses that were created by Hugo and Hilda: Iten Accommodation.
Why Choose us?
We at Kenya Camp truly believe that we have designed the best running camp in the world, with a combination of coached training sessions, seminars, and lots of cultural and life experiences. It will bring your own running to another level and it's something you will never forget.
The camp is very well organised from start till end. From the coaches, to the personal pacers, the transport on location and all activities. You have nothing to worry about and can train in a safe environment.
Kenya Camp Head coach and Human Movement Scientist Hugo, who holds a personal best of 2h12 on the marathon, has an incredible amount of experience and knowledge. And if there is one thing Hugo enjoys, it is to share his knowledge with other runners. This is why we have included several high level seminars, where we talk about why Kenyans are dominating the running world, and what you can do to improve your running.
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 all meals) at our guesthouse and training centre, used by elites and amateur runners of all levels.
