We are happy to exclusively invite the 6AM Club runners to get together for a trail running retreat in Oaxaca, Mexico where we will bring attention to our senses and generate an environment that promotes vulnerability, empathy & cohesion across the team members.
A ritual is taking the things we do everyday and layering meaning on them so they become soulful practices. Following Le 6AM Club’s ritual, we will start our activities at 6:00 am with meditation and breathwork. Each morning, we will set an intention for our run.
From the moment you arrive in Oaxaca City, you’ll be immersed in the region’s vibrant traditions, sampling local delicacies at the bustling Mercado 20 de Noviembre and venturing into the Sierra Norte for a refreshing shakeout run. Your days will start with meditation, pranayama, or invigorating Vinyasa flow sessions, setting the tone for exhilarating 16- to 20-kilometer trail runs through breathtaking landscapes. Along the way, you’ll check in to charming cabañas, partake in bread-making workshops, and even cleanse your spirit in a traditional temazcal ceremony. This journey culminates in a challenging run from Latuvi to Nevería before bidding farewell to Sierra Norte, leaving you with cherished memories and a profound sense of self-discovery.
