Marathon & Lifestyle Travel Specialists – Kathrine Switzer to Join Us in New York
ENORMOUS news this week on the TCS New York City Marathon front. We have secured the services of a former winner of the NYCM to join us and talk to our runners. Want inspiration? You will get it in bucket loads but you need to come to NY with us.
More below.
This week we're also calling for all those runners who would really love a FREE TRIP to the North Pole Marathon. It's simple…. you could be there in 2017.
With the two above items I'm not sure there's a lot left to say in terms of excitement this week. Except that we are still promoting some of the best marathons in the world and welcome you to join us on the adventure.
I'm exhausted!
And remember….. when you think of travelling to an event, think about travelling with the marathon and lifestyle travel experts.

Kathrine Switzer to Join Us in New York
When it comes to women's distance running there is no bigger name than Kathrine Switzer. We are thrilled to announce that Kathrine will be joining us in New York to have a chat with our runners and share her extraordinary journey.
Kathrine rose to fame in 1967 when she became the first woman to officially enter the Boston Marathon. Kathrine was also the first runner to be crash tackled by the Race Director, Jock Semple, when he realised that KV Switzer was actually a woman. The rest, as they say, is running history.
Kathrine went on to run 39 marathons, won the 1974 NYCM, then ran a top ranked time of 2:51:37 in the 1975 Boston Marathon. Kathrine was also instrumental in having the women's marathon introduced into the Olympics.
Kathrine is renowned as an engaging, energetic speaker and is an Emmy winning TV commentator. In 2011 she was inducted into the USA National Women's Hall of Fame for her ongoing effort in creating positive social change in the world.
And now Kathrine will be joining us in NY!
If you want to have one of the most extraordinary experiences of your life, join us in New York and meet Kathrine.
In terms of final preparation for your marathon, it doesn't get better than this!

Budapest Marathon – a Run Through History
Budapest Marathon has more than 27,000 runners from over 80 countries, all of whom fall in love with the magic of this historical city.
All the highlights of Budapest feature on the marathon course – Andrassy Ave, the Gresham Hotel, Chain Bridge, Buda Castle, Margaret Island and Parliament, the building synonymous with Budapest.
As well as the marathon, there's also a Marathon Relay, 30km, Mini Marathon and Fun Run. October is a beautiful time in Budapest. Make it yours!
The Hills are Alive in the Mozart 100
From the magical to the musical, we're off to Austria to run through the hills in the Mozart 100.
One of the most scenic runs in Europe, think about running through forests and meadows, over hills, along rivers and through quaint villages. You don't have to run the 100km – you can do the 55km, 25km or 11.8km. What you don't want to do is miss out!
Trail running is huge and the Mozart 100 is respected as being one of the best.
