Pacific Running Guides has launched new packaged luxury running vacations designed to appeal to the 20 million strong running community worldwide, who also enjoy unique travel excursions. The packages combine outstanding running terrain with some of British Columbia's most spectacular scenery.

Guests can choose to take an urban "City Escape" in the heart of Vancouver or a multi-day "Getaway" to neighboring Whistler and Victoria. All packages include transportation, guided runs, breakfast and deluxe accommodations. Guests can also have their guide arrange a variety of daily activities such as guided hikes, whale watching, kayaking or horseback riding. The focus is on fun and fitness and all levels of runners can participate.

"Pacific Running Guides vacations are a perfect mix of fitness and pampering. Their holidays are a unique way for visitors to see the sites and stick to their exercise program," said Janet Carson, Tourism Vancouver vice-president of Visitor & Member Services.

Pacific Running Guides offers services to a growing market of travelers who are trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle while away from home. By using guides experienced in both the fitness and tourism industry on all tours, Pacific Running Guides offers a unique and safe alternative to the traditional hotel gym as well as a departure from the average "site-seeing" package.
