Royal Caribbean Blog Podcast Episode - Marathon Royal Caribbean runner

Royal Caribbean UK is offering running enthusiasts the opportunity to start their own Royal Caribbean running team, provided you live in the United Kingdom.

Dubbed, "Royal Caribbean Runners", this new program offers a great way to get fit.  People can form  groups of 10 to 15 people who help and encourage each other through regular runs over a 9 week period.  You can choose to run with an existing Royal Caribbean Runners Group, or start one of your own. If you are new to running then you’ll get lots of help and advice from a trained leader during each run. And we’d also really like to hear from you if you would like to start up a running group of your own.

Royal Caribbean Runners is open to everyone, from more experienced runners to those who can just about manage a short jog to catch the bus.

By signing up, you can receive a Royal Caribbean Runners T-shirt.  Those that start their own running group and recruit 10 or more runners can receive an iPod shuffle.

If you're interested and live in or near Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex and London, you can go to www.runengland.org/royalcaribbeanrunners for more details.

Due to weather, the Nassau/Royal Caribbean Fun Run in Paradise that was being put on by Royal Caribbean and ESPN, has been cancelled.  The run was scheduled to take place yesterday morning but Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas could not dock in Nassau due to high seas and windy conditions.

Prior to the race being cancelled, over 100 Royal Caribbean passengers were scheduled to participate, including several competitive running celebrities.  

The Fun Run in Paradise was scheduled to be part of the inaugural Royal 5K St Maarten Lifestyle, Running and Fitness Show which will air January 27 and 28 on the ESPN Caribbean Networks.

There is still a possibility that Allure of the Seas will be able to dock at Nassau later in the cruise itinerary.
