Organiser's description
The 5th event in the 2016/7 Night Run Series - a tough 10 mile race, not for the faint-hearted, if you manage to match your half marathon time, we'll be impressed! The first 5 miles are mainly uphill, with one or two brief descents to give you some respite. Then it's out onto Dartmoor. The second half is mainly downhill but with a couple of short sharp climbs to keep you on your toes. Also 5 mile option, shorter but still wild and challenging. Come prepared to deal with rocks, mud, moorland, bogs and even a little bit of tarmac. Head-torches are compulsory, you'll be running the whole race in the dark!
