I really enjoyed this event. It was small and friendly and very well managed and organised. The route was really pleasant and enjoyable and the medal on completion was very cool. I look forward to doing it again next year. Thanks to the organisers and all the marshals that helped it happen.

Organiser's description
The Balmy Bicton 10km - Change of venue
Due to the on going Tidal Defence works on Exmouth seafront this race will be moving to the new beautiful location of Bicton college grounds for this years race.
Equally as challenging a race as the intended cliff to beach run only 2021 will take you through the undulating lanes surrounding the college grounds, finishing with a lap of the spectacular green campus.
Runners of all levels can take part in this unique race covering mixed terrain; tarmac, unmetalled roads and even a ford if we've had enough rain!!
The grounds of the college lend itself wonderfully to staging this race, plenty of parking, green spaces and plenty of areas for spectators to cheer you on, creating a fanstastic atmosphere, as you lap the grounds to the finish line.
Bespoke medal for all race finishers.
