This isn’t just a retreat, it’s a moment you’ll talk about for years.

A 4-night luxury running & yoga escape in the Andalusian hills, created around the Malaga Marathon with the Simple Life Run Club community. Think race-day energy, post-run recovery, golden sunshine and deep connection, all from a private countryside villa with your people.

Limited spaces. Our First Simple Life away. One unforgettable weekend where challenge meets celebration and strangers become lifelong run club friends.

A place to Run, Recover, Feast & Connect.

Imagine being part of something truly special, the kind of experience you wish you could rewind and relive.
Picture yourself standing on the Malaga Marathon or Half Marathon start line: heart pounding, sunshine warming your skin, the SLRC crew right beside you. Four soul-lifting days soaking up the Andalusian hills. Morning shake-out runs. Yoga flows under blue skies. Cold plunges that reset everything. Long, laughter-filled table feasts that stretch late into the night.

This is community meets challenge, where Simple Life Run Club comes alive in its purest form, movement, connection, joy and shared achievement.

A Breathtaking Andalusian Villa

Wake up surrounded by rolling hills, sunshine and stillness - luxury, privacy and space to fully switch off.

The Perfect Balance

Downtime meets intention: yoga, easy runs, recovery dips, nourishing food and space to just be.

Run With Purpose

Whether it’s your first half marathon, your biggest full marathon yet, or your first race abroad, this is your moment, supported every step of the way.

Your People

Train, race, eat and recover alongside like-minded movers who lift you up, cheer you on and celebrate every win, big or small.

Run. Recover. Feast. Connect.
