Running Events Devon

Happy DEVON Day!

Also know as St. Petroc's Day, the annual celebration was initiated to encourage local county pride and to highlight its distinctive identity, landscapes, culture and heritage. Well we do live in a beautiful area 😍

Are you celebrating in any way?

You could enter one of our upcoming challenge events to check out the scenery, also get a sneaky 10% discount off your entry using code run4fun on this link - https://www.evententry.co.uk/events/running-events-devon

Tomorrow we are cheering at Dartmoor Discovery in our usual marshall spot, may bring a couple snacks with us!

Sunday a couple of us are heading to Swanage (I know sneaking across the border in June & July!) for Big Sea event.

Please give us a shout if you see us. What are you up to this weekend?

Don't forget whatever you do Run 4 Fun and the only person you are challenging is Yourself!

Happy Global Running Day 2026!

It's not just about running It's about getting out there. We have amazing friends that we have met through the running world. Also a reason we set up Running Events Devon, to bring the happiness of bringing people together ❤️

We thought to celebrate we would offer a buzzing 10% discount on entries for 48 hours 😀

Happy Booking 😍

Happy Tuesday.
We have been asked a few times about adding in a 50k option to our routes.
We tested this Exmouth at May We Challenge You and it worked out really well. It will now be an option at both venues.
How does it work as our laps are 5.27k a loop? You would complete 9 laps and then do a shorter out and back, that has been measured, to give you 50k.
Our results will show you as completing 50k 😀

Sound good? We hope you will join us and test it out for those of you that prefer the 50k distance.

All other distances are still there, no pressure to do any distance, well apart from 1 full lap to get your bling! Unless you signed up for the no medal option of course 😉

The medals have arrived for Star Tracks on Sunday 5th July at Brickfields Track in Plymouth. 🤩😍

What is different to our usual events? The Laps are smaller 😉 You are going around a 400m track!

13 Laps (minimum) will give you 5k
26 Laps for a 10k
53 Laps for a Half Marathon
106 Laps for a Marathon
Just see how far you can go in 7 Hours!

As it's a challenge event, we only count full Laps.

This is not classified as road, as the distance will vary depending on the lane you are in on the track, but we count it by laps.

Between 3 and 3 & half hours on the clock, we will turn you round, so you can unwind in the opposite direction.

This event will be chip timed, we don't have enough bumble bee bands! 🤣

Are you joining us? This event is capped on numbers, due to being on a track but we will be offering the usual TUGG, Turn Up Get Going.
