Running Events Devon - Medal Mix Challenge Day 1 (28 November 2026)

This is an 8 hour timed road event held on 28 November 2026 near Capel Lane, Littleham, Exmouth EX8 2QZ. The event uses a Turn Up Get Going (TUGG) system that allows flexible starts within the event window; all participants must finish within the permitted time.

The course is an accurately measured out-and-back route on an old disused train line. Each lap is 5.3 km and the surface is tarmac, so the course is classified as road. The route is described as scenic and follows a former railway alignment.

Entrant numbers are capped at 75 and the minimum age is 18 years. Entries close on 27 November 2026. A permit is recorded as ARC.

Entry fees are listed as Affiliated £32.00 and Unattached £34.00. The event will supply a mix of spare medals for finishers; specific medal requests can be made to the organiser. Participants who complete any number of laps within the permitted time are recorded as finishers and may collect a medal.

Full organiser terms and conditions are available from the event organiser. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
