This was a much harder exercise (no pun intended) than I originally thought. I've left out so many incredible runs but these are my favourites, with SanFran taking the gold medal.
I bloody love this run! It's a got a bit everything; fresh pine smell, crisp mornings, fellow runners, incline, decline, bison, an old Dutch windmill and the pièce de résistance: a beach at the end - if you make it down that far of course.
As you can tell, I love a coastal run - not only for the views but a swim after. If you want more info about any of these runs i.e. where to start, end, how long, hot tips etc, ping me.
Tell me your top 5 - different country for each!

I have created a Vacation Rental platform — www.beitibeitak.com — targeting the Middle East and North Africa. While our initial traction was very promising, the lack of fund and resources has affected our numbers and I am now in the process of looking for the right partnerships to take our startup to the next step.
Any thoughts or questions?
Hi Francois,
Thanks for sharing your travel startup here - it looks very well developed, bravo!
Here’s a few ideas for you:
1. Intelak Hub. They are a Dubai-based accelerator and incubator with a great team and alumni including many TM members. See
2. Microns.io is a marketplace for buying and selling startups. Perhaps you could meet some partners there.
3. Sigmund project is a place to find mentors and partners for early stage tourism ideas. See
4. Bond Connect is a new hospitality industry slack group, there may be some mentors or partners there. www.bond-connect.io
Hope that helps!
