How fit do I have to be for the Tour? back

The basic requirement for the Tour is of course that you are well on this day. Otherwise you don`t have to make yourself any worries. You control the pace and if necessary, the breaks when you run. Your Running Guide adjusts to your running style. The run will be for your healthiness and relaxation, not for making you breathless.

What are the best times for a Sightjogging Tour? back

Depending on the sunrise, in summer between 5 and 10 clock in the morning is the best time for Sightjogging in Barcelona. Like many other big cities in the world, Barcelona slumbers in the morning and wakes up slowly to life. Later the traffic is very dense and the sidewalks filled with people. Reasonable running is hardly possible and increase the risk of injury.

Principle you can choose by agreement any time of day. But please note, that in summer it can get very hot during the day and physical exertion should be avoided! In the autumn and winter months the situation in Barcelona is more relaxed and other times will be no problem for running.

Where does the Tour starts? back

Als zentraler Punkt in Barcelona starten die Touren (bis auf wenige Ausnahmen!) am Placa de Catalunya. Wohnst Du in der Nähe der Strecke können wir Dich aber gerne auch dort treffen. Bei Individual Touren steht es Dir frei von wo Du starten möchtest. Sollen wir Dich von weiter weg abholen, musst Du die Transportkosten für den Hin- und Rückweg einschließlich Running Guide bezahlen!

Where do I meet the guide and how will I identify the guide? back

As a central point in Barcelona, the Tours (except of a few exceptions!)are starting at the Placa de Catalunya.

Should we collect from you from further away, you have to pay the transportation (metro, bus or taxi!) costs for both ways, including the Running Guide!
