Come and join MRC Oslo for a fun training week near Alicante, ending with the option to race the Alicante 10k or half marathon!
We will have a hotel just north of Alicante with a gym, swimming pool, running track, tennis courts, etc. The price of the hotel is depending on what type of room you will have.
Check in at the hotel is on Wednesday Feb 18th, check out on Monday Feb 23rd, 2026.
Besides a week of training and good vibes, there is the option to give the trip a fitting end by joining the Alicante 10km or Alicante half marathon on Sunday Feb. 22nd.
Please be aware: You will have to arrange your own flights and race registration!
The costs of the hotel are:
1 pers. room: GBP 539 p.p.
2 pers. room: GBP 419 p.p.
3 pers. room: GBP 399 p.p
For this you will have 5 nights (Wednesday 18th - Monday 23rd Feb.) with full board (only water. Other drinks at your own cost), bus pick up as a group at the airport (which works best if people arrive and leave with the same flight), access to track, etc.
NOT INCLUDED in this price are:
- Flights to and from Alicante
- The registration for the race
- A longer stay
- Transport to the start of the race and back
- Drinks at the hotel
To register, please follow the link below. Please be aware that upon registration, the hotel needs a downpayment of GBP 100 (roughly 1350 NOK), and that by registering you commit to paying the full amount when it is due (latest mid December). The fee is non-refundable and non-cancellable.
It is possible however to sell your spot to someone else, but this is at your own responsibility. Availability of the offer depends on the amount of rooms available at the hotel - we work on a first come first serve basis. We understand it is far away still but to ensure you get a spot register early!
There are several option to fly into Alicante. At the time of setting this up, there are direct flights to Alicante with SAS (07:00) and Norwegian (07:45) and some with stopovers. On Monday there are flights back in the afternoon (12:15 & 15:35 with Norwegian or 18:50 with SAS). As said, you can choose your own transportation, go earlier, stay longer, as booking the flights is your own responsibility.
