About Mike
"The best way to know a city is to run it."
Mike Silverman is an American who moved to Seville in 2009 and never left. Over fifteen years of living, working, and running in the city, he has mapped every neighbourhood on foot — the grand boulevards and the back alleys, the riverfront at dawn and the old quarter on a quiet Sunday morning.
He launched RunSevilla after noticing that most visitors saw the city through a bus window or a map app. Running changes that. At pace, at street level, with someone who actually lives there, Seville reveals itself differently — the smell of orange blossom in April, the light on the Giralda just after sunrise, the bar that opens at seven for runners who’ve earned their coffee.
Mike leads tours in both English and Spanish and has guided everyone from first-time travellers to competitive athletes in training. Whether you’re chasing a PB or just want to see the city in a way you’ll actually remember, he’ll design a run around you.
