Before the retreat I was nervous about attending a weekend event where I did not know any of the attendees, but everyone was so welcoming. As someone who is more reserved/quiet I felt fully involved…I was able to relax, hang out with some inspiring women, and enjoy some running, hiking, and delicious food too. Definitely a refreshing weekend.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We believe that running is a transformative act for everyone who chooses to participate. We welcome runners of all ages and abilities. For group runs we divide into pace groups and make sure that no one runs alone. We believe that everyone belongs at Rise.Run.Retreat.

  • Group runs are anywhere from 3-6 miles on varied terrain. At each of our retreats, we plan for a combination of road, trail and rural dirt road runs. For those following a training plan, there are options to run longer when needed.

  • The biggest difference is the length of the retreat and the fact that our 3-day retreat does not feature outside guest speakers and is facilitated by Rise Run Retreat founder and host, Sarah Canney and Rise Run Retreat staff.

  • This varies based on our location, but typically the closest airports are

    Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT) Manchester, NH

    Portland International Airport (PWM) Portland, Maine

    Boston Logan International Airport (BOS)

    Burlington International Airport (BTV) Burlington, VT

    The retreat does not provide transportation to and from the airport but assists attendees with coordinating carpool and rideshare with other attendees.

  • Accommodations at our 4-day retreats are usually at luxury private homes with single and double and multi-occupancy available on a first come first serve basis. Our 3-day retreats often feature rustic, lodge-like accommodations with double and single occupancy.

  • The cancelation deadline for each retreat is 90-days before the retreat start date. Prior to the cancelation deadline, registered participants can receive a refund less a $500 non-refundable deposit. Because of the investment of time and money into planning the retreat and securing lodging, guest speakers etc., we are unable to issue any refunds after the cancelation deadline of 90-days prior to the retreat start date.

  • We require a negative COVID test within 72 hours arrival to participate in our retreats.
