PROMOTED RACES - The Big Eight
The Big Eight comprises a variety of distances and terrains. So whether you are just starting out and are looking for a sensible 10k race to run, or are a seasoned distance runner experienced in these kind of events, hopefully there is something here for everyone.
17th May - The Town Tree Trail
17th June - The Giants Head Marathon
18th June - Martock 10k
2nd August - Haselbury 10k Trail - Welcome to trail running! A scenic route involving stiles, a ford and a sharp climb. Based around the North Perrott and organised by Crewkerne Running Club.
3rd September - Bridgewater Half Marathon - Relatively flat road running with PBs on offer.
29th October - Herepath Half Marathon (link to main page, entries for 2023 not yet open) - Definitely NOT flat! A challenging, well-established local trail race near Taunton with hills, mud and a friendly atmosphere. Great scenery and views.
11th December - Bovington Half and Marathon - tbc - One of the few trail events closer to Christmas, based near the Tank Training Area and Museum in Dorset. More benign than the Herepath but plenty of hills and mud, and a choice of Half or Marathon distance.
17th March 2024 - Grizzly and Grizzly Cub - Famous trail race out of Seaton, Devon. Choice of 9 or 20 miles. Spectacular coastal and countryside scenery. Tough courses.
June 2024 - Giant's Head Half and Marathon - Very popular with Langport Runners. Trail half and marathon based near the Cerne Abbas giant in Dorset. Tough, hill courses amid beautiful scenery. Plenty of time to train for this one! In case you were wondering, there has been a waiting list for this year's event for some time so you might need to book promptly for next year.
29th June 2024 - Ham to Lyme (link to be updated post-2023 race) - Another race popular with Langport Runners. This is an epic trail even with a choice between 50k and 100k One-way from Ham Hill to Lyme Regis for the 50k runners.
