The Race With No Name
Drewsteignton Village Hall
Dartmoor Traverse/Race With No Name
This is a 35 mile (just over 50k) self-nav Dartmoor Traverse with a difference. This is a challenge event or a race, but we’ll be encouraging walkers to take part this year too.
The Race With No Name/Dartmoor Traverse follows the Two Moors Way route (western route).
Solos
This is the same as for previous years, but we will include running guides to run alongside runners (mid and rear pack but not front runners, so race snakes can relax!).
Who is it for?
This event will appeal to people with a sense of adventure, who are looking for a scenic and runnable way to cross Dartmoor at any time of year. It’s also ideal for the first-time ultra runner and those of you who want to do a Dartmoor Crossing.
Entrants need to be 20 at least to enter the Ultra, unless they do it as a challenge (walk), in which case younger entrants can do it with a guardian or parent.
We recommend that runners are capable of completing this in less than ten hours.
What’s included:
- GPX files optimised for all the leading watches and devices
- Mandatory kit checks (for your own safety and well-being)
- Transport to the start from Ivybridge (for a £20 booking fee)
- Parking in Ivybridge.
Saturday October 19th. 7:30am
