Race The Tide

Race The Tide is a running event held at the scenic Flete Estate in Mothecombe, South Devon. It features three races catering to various abilities: an 8.5-mile Woodland Trail, a 15.5-mile Long Half-Marathon, and a 28.5-mile Long Marathon. The courses combine private footpaths, woodland trails, and coastal paths along the Erme estuary and the South West Coast Path, including a notable stretch across Bigbury beach to Burgh Island.

The event offers well-marked routes, multiple aid stations, and a challenging tide-racing element. Finishers receive bespoke medals, and trail running gear is required due to the terrain and conditions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
