Event Details
Running Events Devon - Autumn Challenge Day 1 takes place on Saturday, 10 October 2026. It is an eight-hour timed event where participants can complete as many laps as they wish within the time limit. The event operates a flexible start system, allowing participants to begin their run at any time within a designated window. The total course must be completed by a fixed cutoff time.
Course and Format
The event takes place on a scenic, disused train line. Each out-and-back lap measures 5.3 km and is run entirely on tarmac; the course is accurately measured and classified as a road route. The terrain is described as undulating and paved. Participants set their own distance goal by completing laps, and everyone who finishes at least one lap within the permitted time receives a finisher's medal.
Participation and Logistics
The event is open to runners and walkers of all abilities. The minimum age for participants is 18 years. Entry is capped at a maximum of 75 people, and entries close on 9 October 2026. Standard entry includes a finisher's medal, with lower-cost "No Perks" options available that do not include a medal. The event holds a permit from the ARC (Association of Running Clubs).
