Running Events Devon - Train-ing Challenge 2026
This event takes place on Saturday 29 August 2026 near Bridestowe, EX20 4HF. It is an eight hour timed event on an undulating off-road and paved route that follows an old disused train line. The course is out-and-back with each lap measuring 5.3k.
The event operates a "Turn Up Get Going" system that allows flexible arrival within the event window and enforces a fixed finish cut-off time. Participants may walk or run and are recorded as finishers if they complete a final lap within the permitted time. Finishers may collect a medal; alternate bespoke medals are available if the event reaches capacity.
Practical details published for the event include a maximum of 70 entrants, a minimum age of 18 years, and an entries closing date of 27/08/2026. There are several entry categories with stated fees: affiliated, unattached, and "no perks" options without a medal or goodies.
Nearby accommodation mentioned for visitors includes the Fox & Hounds, which offers rooms, a bunkhouse and camping, and serves food. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
