Endurancelife Exmoor takes place in the western area of Exmoor National Park, with the event scheduled for 9 May 2026 at Martinhoe. It is part of the Endurancelife 2025-26 trail running season and counts for the Season Leader Board; participants earn points based on performance. Organisers require online check-in about two weeks before the event. The check-in asks participants to confirm a postal address so a race number and electronic timing tag can be posted and to watch a mandatory event safety video.

Refund, transfer and postponement policies are described, including a 30-day full-refund policy and the ability to transfer an entry up to 14 days before the event.
