Devon Running Events invites runners of all abilities to experience the scenic beauty of an old disused train line on Wednesday, December 30, 2026. This unique opportunity extends beyond this day with additional events scheduled from December 28 through January 3, offering a variety of options for those looking to make a longer stay in Devon. Participants can choose between the "4 in 4 Days," "5 in 5 Days," and "7 in 7" challenges if they're up for an extended adventure. The event operates on a flexible schedule with the 'TUGG' system—Turn Up Get Going—which allows participants to start anytime between 7:30 AM and 2:30 PM, provided you complete your final lap by 3:30 PM. The course is precisely measured at 5.3 kilometers out and back along a picturesque tarmac route on the old train line, offering runners stunning views of Devon's countryside while providing an accurately classified road running experience. Whether you plan to walk or run, there’s no limit to how far you can go within the designated time frame. All finishers will receive a medal for their achievement, celebrating every participant who reaches the finish line by 3:30 PM on their chosen day. Spaces are limited, so don’t wait too long to secure your spot and join us in Devon for an unforgettable running experience. The event promises not just a run but also an opportunity to immerse yourself in the serene beauty of Devon while enjoying the camaraderie among fellow runners and walkers who share your passion for movement and adventure.
