Each morning we will have group runs, all designed to be at your own pace. There is absolutely no speed requirement to come, learn and enjoy some fantastic runs. We will have plenty of time for each of our runs for everyone to run the pace appropriate for them.
You will get time to explore downtown Blowing Rock, enjoy the amenities at Chetola, and make the most of your vacation in the mountains. You’ll get the opportunity to soar in the Blue Ridge canopy during our zip lining excursion. Our goal with this week is to create an informative and truly unique running experience.

Chetola & Lodging Information

ZAP will have a dedicated space inside for meals, training seminars, and socializing for the duration of our stay. Your lodging will consist of a room located within a 3 bedroom or 4 bedroom condo unit within the resort. The condo units will be shared with other Running Vacation attendees. Every room within each unit will have 1 or 2 beds along with it’s own bathroom.
