Night run on Dartmoor from South Brent

Devon's toughest night running race is back for 2015. Registraton opens at 4pm and there is a mass start for both races at 5.30pm. At Shipley Bridge Mild Night Runners turn right and Wild Night Runners turn left to head up onto open moorland. The first 2 1/2 miles is mainly up hill following the river to Shipley Bridge with one or two brief descents to give you some respite. At Shipley the two routes Split. Wild Runners continue up to Avon Dam before heading onto open Moorland. Mild Night Runners turn right up a tarmac lane before starting a steep and rocky descent which eventually joins up with the Wild Night Run. These are tough races and not for the faint-hearted. If you manage to match your half marathon time on the road for the Wild Night Run we'll be amazed! Here is the course of the 2013 race. There will be minor modifications for 2014 to make the route easier to follow plus lots of flashing lights and luminous marker stakes specially imported from the States. Team Competition We now have a team competition. Up to 5 people per team and the three fastest times in that team count towards the prize.
