Route information
The longest and toughest of all the races, TSUNAMI 24 is 75 miles and 5,270m of ascent, in 24 hours max. It starts on Friday night, the longest day of the year, and finishes at Castle Bude on the Saturday.
On Saturday, the iconic Clovelly Harbour will play host to the marathon's starting line. Runners will head uphill on the cobblestones through the village to reach the Coast Path, to finish on the lawns of Castle Bude, taking in almost 2,000m of ascent along the route.
The Ultra adds another 11 miles of serious fun, while the 16 mile race features the toughest, most vertiginous section from Hartland Quay onwards.
These races are undoubtedly some of the toughest trail running challenges in the South West. Due to the nature of the terrain, wild and isolated (no towns or villages along the route), they will also prove to be the most rewarding.
What's included
- Finisher's Medal
- Fully marked and marshalled route
- Well-stocked checkpoints
- First aid
- TSUNAMI 24, Ultra & Marathon finishers receive 5, 3 & 2 ITRA points respectively.
