Spring race running through the spectacular countryside around Abbotsbury including a section on the coast along the Chesil Beach. All our races start and finish in the beautiful setting of Abbotsbury Sub Tropical Gardens. It’s an amazing backdrop for a race.

The first race of the evening on Saturday 13th April is the Abbotsbury 5k. This is the flattest of our routes. This is a daylight race and head torches are not needed.

This is followed by the Eventide Races, two races – 6 or 12k, 1 or 2 laps. These races will be starting just before sunset and head torches are needed. This route takes on St Catherine’s chapel. A hill top chapel with amazing views of the coast and village of Abbotsbury.

Clatworthy Reservoir is a stunning reservoir set in the Brendon Hills just outside Exmoors western border. The hills, ancient woods, water and slate beaches make an amazing back drop for running.

The reservoir has a natural 5 mile loop and these races have a 10 or 5 mile daylight option and then a 5 mile dusk option setting off just before sunset.

The dusk race requires a head torch as runners are likely to finish in darknesses, please bring spare battery/batteries for them to.

Our Pebblebed Heath races – The Daylight What Came Before 5 and 10k and Night race The Nightjar 5 and 9 mile. (It is possible to enter both of these races in one day!)
