  • Fully closed roads
  • On route entertainment
  • Water and energy stations
  • All the fundraising support you could need

What we need from you:

  • A commitment to raise £250.

10km route information
If the half-marathon isn’t for you then the brand new 10km route also takes you through the heart of Exeter. Following the first and final 3 miles of the half marathon, the route will be well supported and the atmosphere will be incredible. Whether it is your first or one of many – this is the run for you.
