​Come run along the Barcelona coastline before jumping into the sea for a refreshing post-run dip together.

​We’ll meet at 08:00 at Hotel Arts for an easy, flat group run open to all levels. Whether you run often or are just getting started, the session is designed to feel relaxed, social and pressure-free.

​Manel, our host and running coach, will guide the run with a simple structure and short regroup stops along the way, so everyone can move at their own pace. Expect around 5 km in 45 to 60 minutes.

​After the run, we’ll head straight into the Mediterranean for a refreshing beach dip together.

​It's a chance to start the day differently, meet like-minded people, and enjoy one of those simple Barcelona mornings that remind you why you live here.

​Maximum 12 spots to keep it social and easygoing.

​What To Expect:

​✨ A guided run led by an OTC host designed for all levels

​✨ 45 to 60 minutes of easy running covering approximately 5 km with short regrouping pauses

​✨ A refreshing post-run Mediterranean beach dip together

​✨ Social Gathering for curious minds (optional).

​How the run works

​To make sure no one feels bored or held back, we’ll use a very simple group-running formula: • Everyone runs at their own comfortable pace • At each crossing or agreed checkpoint, the faster runners turn back briefly to pick up the last person, then continue forward • This way, faster runners add a bit more distance, the group naturally regroups, and no one is left behind

​It keeps the group together while respecting different levels and rhythms.

​Your Host: Manel Bernal

​Manel Bernal has spent over 20 years leading people as an HR exec — but labels don’t really fit him. He’s a marathon runner turned running coach, a sea fisherman, a car trader, an amateur tennis lover, and the founder of a plant-based restaurant he built from scratch — and somehow made thrive.

​He’s been to 25 concerts in 8 countries in a single year and can probably fix your Brompton… or your mood. After a breakup, he quit alcohol completely, wrote a book (yes, it’s on Amazon), and decided to make life bigger, lighter, and full of new people. That’s why he’s here — for real conversations, good vibes, and nights that turn into stories.

​What to bring?

​Come ready to move in comfortable running gear and proper trainers, and bring water to keep you going.
Everything after is easy, with the option to stay for coffee if it feels right.

​Coffee at Nomad Coffee Bar

​After the run and sea dip, we’ll head to Nomad Coffee Bar for a well-earned coffee together.

​Tucked away in a small passage in El Born, Nomad is one of Barcelona’s most iconic specialty coffee spots. The space is minimalist and design-led, with an industrial feel, a loyal local crowd and some of the best coffee in the city.

​The perfect place to dry off, chat about the run and ease into the rest of the morning.
