Your training base in Seewinkel
12 signposted running routes, varied itineraries and plenty of space to get active: the JMPC offers ideal conditions for training on your own, discovering new routes and combining training with relaxation at VILA VITA Pannonia.
• 12 running routes
• 76.4 km network of running routes
• 200 ha of terrain

Training & recovery go hand in hand
Good training requires more than just kilometres. It requires the right conditions, time for recovery and an environment where you can focus entirely on your sporting goals.
At the JMPC, you’ll be training where Julia Mayer also has her training base. The running routes and the resort’s facilities provide the perfect setting for your personal sporting retreat.
Professional performance assessment, organised training sessions and personalised support are offered as part of selected JMPC running camps and events.
“A good training environment doesn’t start with the running route, but with the conditions surrounding it.” (Julia Mayer)
Your run. Your potential.
We have put together a package for you for the period from 19 to 21 March and from 3 to 5 November 2027.
How well do you know your individual performance levels? And how can you make the most of your training time so that it really helps you progress? At the JMPC Performance Check, in collaboration with the Ramsau Performance Centre, you’ll gain insights into professional performance diagnostics. You’ll learn to better understand your results and use them to derive specific recommendations for your training.
The weekend combines diagnostics, practical sessions and expert knowledge with exercise, discussion and recovery at VILA VITA Pannonia.

Friday – Arrival and getting into the spirit of things
Individual arrival and a relaxed start to the weekend. An optional additional programme is planned, subject to confirmation.

Requirements
No specific competition experience is required. A basic level of fitness that allows you to run approximately 10 km at an easy pace is sufficient. The format is aimed at both beginners with an established training routine and ambitious runners and coaches who want to gain a deeper understanding of performance diagnostics and training management.
As the individual diagnostics and field test are adapted to each participant’s running pace, the format is equally suitable for experienced, fast runners and those new to running. Your running experience, expectations and current 10 km time (a rough estimate is sufficient) will be requested during the second step of the registration process. You will then receive an information email from Florian Reiter (Head of JMPC) with further details about the event.
By registering, you agree that VILA VITA may provide your personal data (first name, last name, address, telephone number and email address) to Florian Reiter (runventure® – sports physiotherapist and running coach) for the purpose of preparing, conducting and following up on the event. This includes coordinating the content of the programme, handling enquiries, and providing pre- and post-event information (follow-up emails and information).
By registering, you also accept the JMPC Declaration of Consent & Guidelines (see PDF download (Ger)), particularly with regard to health, liability, photo and video recordings, and cancellation conditions.
Who is this camp suitable for?
For runners with a regular training routine, ambitious amateur athletes and coaches who wish to gain a deeper understanding of performance diagnostics and training management. Specific competition experience is not required. You should be able to run around ten kilometres at a relaxed pace.
