DARTMOOR WAY 100 - The Full Circle
34 hours is the maximum time allowed to complete the race. It may seem generous, but don’t be fooled, there is over 4000m of ascent to contend with, over sometimes rocky, tussocky, boggy, typical Dartmoor terrain. The event is taking place in late Autumn and as such the weather can be unpredictable with cold and rain, possibly snow. The conditions can be harsh at times, and there will be a night section to contend with. We expect the first runners to be back in Okehampton in around 24 hours, but we think most runners will take 26-32 hours to complete.

DARTMOOR WAY GRANITE 50
Race Start time of 7am from Scorriton, the south of the Moor (near Buckfastleigh TQ11 0JB). There is a maximum time allowance of 15 hours. The finish is from the OCRA Pavilion in the Park, Mill Road, Okehampton, Devon, EX20 1GE (Event HQ).
