Bell Challenge Day 5

The Bell Challenge Day 5 is a timed running event taking place in Exmouth. Participants utilize an eight-hour window to complete as many laps as they choose within the designated timeframe. The event follows a "Turn Up Get Going" system where participants can begin their run at any point during the morning, provided they complete their final lap by the mid-afternoon cutoff.

The course consists of a 5.3 km out-and-back route situated on a scenic, disused train line. Because the route is entirely on tarmac, it is classified as a road surface. The terrain is described as mainly flat with a few rises. The event is open to individuals of all abilities, including both runners and walkers. Participants must be at least 18 years old to enter.

There are no minimum lap requirements to be considered a finisher. Whether completing a single lap or multiple laps, participants are eligible to receive a medal upon concluding their run, unless they have selected a specific entry tier that excludes the medal and goodies. The event has a strict capacity limit of 100 entrants.

Available distances based on lap counts:

  • 5.3 km (one lap)
  • 21.2 km (four laps)
  • 74.2 km (fourteen laps)

The event is part of a larger series of runs held over consecutive days in late December and early January, allowing for multi-day participation options. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
