Confidence – Guaranteed.

Once you book through Travelling Fit you can be assured your race entry is guaranteed. And, with access to some of the most prestigious races in the world, we don’t just advertise Marathons – we run them too. We’ve participated in events through the vineyards of Medoc in France, a private game park in South Africa, along the Great Wall of China, on the Polar Icecap, through the Moroccan Sahara Desert, as well as many of the world’s largest
‘Big City’ Marathons.

We firmly believe the only way to provide unparalleled customer service is to be with you every step of the way – so that’s why when you book an exclusive Marathon package with us, a Travelling Fit representative will also be there at major events to look after any additional needs you may have. We’ve escorted travelling groups to races in London, New York, Tokyo, Chicago, Boston and Berlin to name just a few, so let’s just say upon receiving your confirmation, the only thing stopping you from having a foot on that starting line is you!

Step 1

Set your goal!

So, you’ve decided to run a Marathon, Half Marathons or Ultra – great! Choose your event and let’s get started!

On the odd occasion that you know you want to race, but with so many choices you just don’t know which one to do first or which one suits your experience, get in touch with our team and we can point you in the right direction.

Step 1

Step 2

Lock in your race or sign up for priority notification

Sometimes the event is all set, the package is ready, you simply need to decide which accommodation package you want to include and if you are travelling with a supporter or going solo. In this instance, simply click BOOK NOW on your preferred package and start the booking process.

For some of the popular race events and those with a longer lead time, packages may not have been finalised. In this instance, you will see the package says PENDING RELEASE.

With these events, you are able to select to either ‘enquire’ about that specific event, or ‘become a priority client’, where you will be able to select up to three different events which will give you access to information prior to general release, and on some occasions you will have the opportunity to pay a deposit to secure your race entry when it becomes available.

Step 2

Step 3

Book your event

If your Travelling Fit package is available and you decide to BOOK NOW, then simply complete the booking form and pay your deposit within seven days of completing the online booking form to secure your place.

If the package is PENDING RELEASE, it simply means we are still waiting on our suppliers to finalise accommodation, tours, transfers, etc.

If you know there’s no way you want to miss out and there is the opportunity to pay a “Preliminary Deposit”, it will come off the finalised package cost once our packages are on sale.

Step 3

Step 4

Receive your travel confirmation email and other information

It’s around this time it starts feeling real! We send you an email booking confirmation, attaching your itinerary, the balance payment of your package, and when it’s due.

It’s also at this time where we can provide you with a bit more detail about your specific trip – which will help you to organise your own flights and any additional travel that is not included in your tour package.

Please remember that airfares are NOT INCLUDED in any of our packages, you will need to secure these independently.

A bit further down the track we will also provide access to the closed Facebook Group, created specifically for your tour, that will be set up for you to communicate with others on your trip, share any tips in the lead up, and ask as many questions as required.

Step 4

Step 5

book your flights

If you haven’t done so already, you will need to book your flights based around your personal travel needs.

Travelling Fit is not responsible for any air travel requirements for our clients, but if you have any questions about the best way to pair your package and your air travel, don’t hesitate to ask.

Step 5

Step 6

Download the Travelling Fit App

Approximately 3 weeks prior to departure, you will receive your travel itinerary and any important information relating to your destination via our dedicated app.

Step 6

Step 7

Book optional tours

Some event locations have the additional option of booking tours on top of your existing package. In the instance that there is the option to add a tour, these will be outlined on individual event pages and will also be highlighted when the booking confirmation is sent to you..

Step 7

Step 8

Meet your travelling family!

Everything is set! Your training is going well and it’s not long before you are on your way to having the trip of a lifetime – so it’s time to meet your travelling family!

A virtual meet and greet is the perfect introduction before meeting on the other side of the world!

Step 8

Step 9

Check the letterbox for your customised commemorative shirt

Everyone who books an international package through Travelling Fit gets a customised event t-shirt to commemorate the journey. So, this means even your support person/team (who books through us) gets a t-shirt too to wear whilst cheering you on!

Step 9

Step 10

Arrive at your location 3-5 days prior to your event

FINALLY! It’s time!

Get settled into your accommodation and if there are any pre-planned events in your package, be sure to enjoy every experience.

This is your journey to remember – and thanks for allowing Travelling Fit to experience it with you and we’ll be in touch once you get home!
