Race The Tide | 2026

Race The Tide is a trail running event set in the scenic Flete Estate, Mothecombe, South Devon. Participants can choose from three distances: an 8.5-mile (13.6km) Woodland Trail, a 15.5-mile (25km) Long Half-Marathon, and a 28.5-mile (45.8km) Long Marathon. The courses feature a mix of private footpaths, bridleways, coastal paths, and estuarine trails, including a unique beach section and a causeway crossing to Burgh Island. Runners experience varied terrain with significant ascents and the challenge of 'racing the tide.' All races are fully marked, marshaled, and include aid stations, with bespoke finisher medals and optional event t-shirts available.
