About the race
Based in Budleigh Salterton, the Walter Raleigh Round Half Marathon and Third Marathon offer two distances: 13.6 miles for the half and 8.5 miles for the third marathon. The route winds through quiet back lanes, unsurfaced county roads, little-known footpaths, the Otter valley, High Peak, the Jurassic Coast, and a dismantled railway. It’s open to runners and walkers, with a fully marked course, marshals, well-stocked aid stations, and first aid cover.
Mud and plenty of hills characterize the route. Finisher rewards include a solid oak coaster; 16th-century fancy dress is optional but encouraged, adding a memorable, atmospheric twist. Starts and finishes in Budleigh Salterton. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
