English Riviera Race
The English Riviera Race on 5 July 2026 is organised by Sportiva Events in Torquay. The event uses a completely closed road circuit that starts and finishes on the road next to Torre Abbey Meadows. The lap is exactly 5 km on smooth tarmac. The course is largely flat with a couple of rises each lap and about 47 m of elevation per 5 km lap. The route follows the sea front west towards Preston, turns at about 2.4 km and retraces to complete a loop around the back of Torre Abbey. A UK Athletics licence has been applied for and results are intended to appear on Power of 10.
