they will need an outdoor run so that they can be placed outside on good days to graze on the grass. This is a guinea pigs favorite past time.

There are many types of runs for sale you must decide which is most convenient for your needs. Always use a covered run so as to keep your guinea pigs safe from predators such as cats, dogs, foxes and large wild birds. Unlike rabbits guinea pigs do not dig holes in the lawn and tunnel out.

The guinea pig run should be placed over an area of grass that has not been soiled by other animals and not had any chemicals used on it and situated so that at least part of it is sheltered from direct sunlight on a hot day. A couple of water bottles should be fixed to the side of the run when being used.

And remember -

a guinea pig should not live in a run. It will need a cage or a hutch. 

you should not leave your guinea pigs unattended in the run. Make sure the run is not positioned over or near any poisonous plants. Just like an indoor cage you’ll want to provide access to a hiding area and water.
