Event information
The Train‑ing Challenge takes place on Saturday, 29 August 2026 in Bridestowe, Devon (Station Road, EX20 4HF). The course is an out-and-back route on an old disused train line. Each lap measures 5.3 km and the surface includes off-road and paved sections with undulating terrain. Entrants may complete any number of laps up to a maximum of 14 within the permitted time and finishers receive a medal.
