From 2026, we are planning to take what we have built through Layer and the run club and turn it into something bigger. Proper training camps. Incredible locations. Amazing people. Done properly.
Before starting Layer, I spent over a decade working in elite sport. I have led and delivered training camps across the world and managed teams at major international events for organisations like British Athletics, British Triathlon, British Swimming and Diving, and The FA, including the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo.
We'd really appreciate your help and input for these camps. You can complete a short survey by clicking the link below.
Layer Training Camps are overseas running focused camps designed for everyday athletes who want to train well, spend time with great people, and experience something memorable. They combine structured training, recovery, learning, and community in inspiring locations.
The camps are aimed at runners of all levels, from confident beginners through to experienced recreational and club runners. Sessions will be structured so everyone is supported and challenged at the right level. You do not need to be elite to belong here.
We are currently planning our first camp for 2026 and are exploring overseas locations, with Portugal as the leading option. Final locations and dates will be confirmed once we have gathered feedback from the community.
While exact details will be confirmed later, camps will typically include accommodation, coached training sessions, structured runs, recovery sessions, and educational talks. Flights will not be included. Full itineraries will be shared before bookings open.
Pricing has not been finalised yet. We are using community feedback to understand what feels like fair value and to shape the camp accordingly. Costs will be transparent and shared well in advance of bookings opening.
You can join the Layer Training Camps email list to receive updates, early access, and first details when camps are announced. There is no obligation to book. It is simply the best way to stay in the loop.
