Meet Benjamin Polin: A Weekend of Sports and Fellowship in Vittel
Want to experience an extraordinary weekend centered around running? From Friday, October 9, to Sunday, October 11, 2026, Shantha Coaching invites you to the Olympic Training Center in Vittel, in the Vosges, for a running and trail running camp led by Benjamin Polin, a top-level athlete. Three days to improve your skills, exchange ideas, and share experiences in an exceptional setting in the heart of the Vosges Forest.
A training camp led by Benjamin Polin and two certified coaches
The central theme of this weekend is connection. Benjamin Polin, a top-level trail running athlete, accompanies participants throughout the trip: training sessions, runs, discussions, and sharing of experiences. Alongside him, two certified coaches, Clémence Debano and Sébastien Barthélémy, provide personalized guidance for each runner.
The group is intentionally limited to 15 participants. This small group size ensures close interaction with the instructors and personalized guidance tailored to your skill level, whether you’re a recreational runner or a competitive athlete.
On the agenda: sports, relaxation, and socializing
The program is suitable for everyone, varied, and rich in experiences. It is structured around several highlights: outdoor runs on roads, trails, and tracks to offer a variety of experiences and terrains; training sessions and jogs led by Benjamin Polin; opportunities to discuss and share insights based on the athlete’s experiences; moments of relaxation and wellness with access to the spa and pool to aid recovery; and friendly, healthy, and balanced meals enjoyed together.
The camp begins on Friday at 6:00 p.m. and ends on Sunday at 4:00 p.m., giving you plenty of time to enjoy two full days of activities.
