Running Events Devon - New Year 7 in 7 Bell Challenge (2026-2027)

Devon Running Events invites participants to embark on an unforgettable journey through seven days of running and walking along scenic routes starting from Monday, December 28th, 2026, until Thursday, January 3rd, 2027. This unique event offers flexibility with the option to sign up for individual days or choose a multi-day package that suits your schedule and fitness level.
The course features an accurately measured 5.3-kilometer loop along an old disused train line, providing runners and walkers alike with a picturesque backdrop of Devon's natural beauty. The route is entirely on tarmac, making it accessible for all abilities. Participants can start at any time between 7:30 AM and 2:30 PM but must complete their final lap by 3:30 PM.
This event operates under the 'TUGG' system—Turn Up Get Going—which means you don't need to pre-register; just show up within the specified hours. Whether you're aiming for a leisurely stroll or pushing your limits, there's room for everyone on this scenic route. Each lap is out and back along the same path, allowing participants to set their own pace.
Finishers of any distance—whether it’s one lap or multiple laps—are celebrated as winners and receive an event medal upon completion. The course offers a flat terrain with minimal elevation changes, making it ideal for those looking to enjoy a relaxed run or walk while taking in the stunning views along the old train line.
With limited spots available, interested participants are encouraged to sign up early to secure their place in this unique New Year's adventure through Devon’s picturesque landscapes.
