Burrator 10K

Nestled within the picturesque landscape of Devon, the Burrator 10K offers runners an unparalleled blend of beauty and speed. This race is renowned not only for its stunning setting but also for its fast, flat course that winds along tarmac roads around the serene waters of Burrator Reservoir.
Starting near the visitor centre on the dam bridge, participants are greeted by panoramic views as they set off towards a route designed to accommodate both elite runners and casual joggers. The event is meticulously planned with safety in mind; all roads are closed during race hours ensuring a smooth and safe experience for everyone involved.
The course itself loops around the reservoir once before continuing two-thirds of a second loop, finishing at exactly 10 kilometers just north of the visitor centre hub. With only 90 meters of elevation gain throughout its entirety, this race is an ideal setting to chase personal bests in tranquil surroundings.
Perfect for those aiming to break records with its potential sub-30-minute finish times under optimal conditions, or equally suitable for first-time runners looking to enjoy a scenic and well-managed event. The limited entry numbers ensure that participants can fully appreciate the beauty of Burrator while experiencing an organized race environment supported by UK Athletics rules.
Registration is capped due to parking constraints at this popular venue, so early sign-ups are recommended to secure your place in what promises to be one of the most scenic and enjoyable 10K races in the country.
The event's picturesque backdrop complements its challenging yet welcoming nature, making it a must-run for enthusiasts seeking both speed and splendor on their race day.
