Event information

Organiser's description

Running Events Devon would like to invite you to come and run with us.

This event is being held on the 22nd September 2024.

Absolutely all abilities of runners / walkers can take part in our events as you have 7 hours to get to the finish of your final lap, each lap is 5.3k out and back, of our scenic route on an old disused train line.
It is an accurately measured course so therefore it is classified as Road, it is run entirely on tarmac.
Everyone is welcome whether you are planning to walk or run, whether you finish 1 lap, 4 laps or even 14 laps in the permitted time, we would class you as finisher and a winner, and you can collect your Medal for the event. 1 lap is 5.3k so 4 laps will give you a half marathon, 8 laps will give you full marathon distance, 9 or more laps for an Ultra.

Please come and have a try and see how far you can go.

Places are strictly limited so please do not leave it too late to enter.

Permit Number - ARC24/0151

Running Events Devon

In 2020 Tim and Jenny set up Running Events Devon, we believe in being inclusive, we wish to encourage and enable all types of walkers and runners to achieve their own target. Tim started running in 2009 with the aim of completing London Marathon in 2010, well he managed that and just kept on running! In 2017 he completed his 100th marathon and 2019 saw him complete his 200th marathon. He is still running marathons to date, he uses the term running very loosley as it is more a walk run, but it doesn't matter about time it is about completing and getting to the target he wants to achieve! Jenny started helping at running events in 2009, she is well known for her encouragement to all runners of all abilities. She is not a runner herself but has learnt a lot through marshalling, helping and having both Tim and their son Ben running at lots of events.
