Bude Pirate Run

The Bude Pirate Run is an approximately 8-mile trail race held in Bude, Cornwall, starting and finishing at Maer Down near Crooklets Beach. The course features outstanding coastal scenery, varied terrain including trails, fields, wooded areas, and some road sections, with many hills making it a challenging run. The event is part of the Cornwall Multi Terrain Series and prohibits headphones and dogs for safety.

Two water stations are provided along the route, and all finishers receive a "Pirate Bounty" race memento and a pasty. The race supports the Bude Surf Life Saving Club through charitable donations. Parking and facilities are available near the start area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
