South Hams Relay - 19 July 2026

The inaugural South Hams Relay is a 100-mile team relay held in South Devon, based at Borough Park in Totnes. The course is divided into 16 legs that showcase coastal and countryside sections and uses a mix of rolling roads and scenic routes. Organisers with experience delivering relays in the Midlands and Norfolk developed the event and provide full GPX files for each leg.

Teams consist of 10 to 16 runners. Leg distances vary to spread the distance among team members and accommodate different abilities.
