24/01/2026 00:30IMPORTANT: Event Postponed Today

Following a further review of the latest weather forecasts and site conditions, we regret to inform you that today's event is now postponed.

While we had previously expected strong winds to ease by around 9:00 am this morning, updated forecasts are indicating that high winds are likely to persist for several more hours into the morning. In addition, there has already been significant coastal damage in the area to both routes and car parks.

Please note that, if you are in the area and now considering enjoying some of the routes independently, there are two low-lying points on the course - Hallsands Village and Lannacombe Beach - where conditions will be particularly dangerous due to erosion and the next high tide in the morning. We would strongly advise you to avoid these spots.

Thank you for your understanding. We appreciate this is disappointing news - as it is for us. Further information regarding next steps will be shared with you via email early next week. We kindly ask that you await this email before contacting us.

Best wishes, James and the Endurancelife Team.

23/01/2026 17:00Weather & event update – Please read

The latest forecast indicates that the overnight strong winds are to ease from around 9:00 am tomorrow (Saturday). Rain is currently predicted to persist through much of the morning, so runners should be prepared for wet conditions.

At this stage, we may also need to make adjustments to parking arrangements depending on ground conditions. Any changes will be communicated as early as possible. The decision to cancel or postpone the event is always a possibility at any time. Any major update and you will be notified via sms.

Participants are strongly encouraged to continue checking this Updates tab for the most up-to-date information ahead of the event.

22/01/2026 18:00Weather update

As you may be aware, unsettled weather is forecast for the area tomorrow (Friday) and into Saturday. The good news is that current forecasts indicate this system should move through by approximately 8:00 am on Saturday, with improving conditions thereafter.

Participants are encouraged to make use of the event’s bag drop and to bring appropriate waterproof and warm clothing to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable day.

21/01/2026 12:00Bib number collection

28/01/2025 13:00Endurancelife South Devon 2026 - Launched!

This event is part of the Endurancelife 25-26 trail running season (September 2025 till July 2026). Runners who complete any distance category at this event will be awarded points and will be listed in the Season Leader Board. Points are awarded based on performance and can contribute to a participant's overall season score. Good luck! Read more here.

Check-in! : We will be asking all registered participants to check in online approximately two weeks from the event. The Check-in process will result in a simpler event experience for you by removing the usual on-the-day administration. Within the Check-in process we will ask you to: 1) Confirm your preferred postal address to enable your participant number to be posted out and, 2) Watch the mandatory event safety video.

This is where the Coastal Trail Series was born - the South Devon stage has become a cult classic. The course is contained within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and is simultaneously picturesque and punishing. With its blend of jagged rocks interspersed with idyllic sandy coves, this coastline is jaw-droppingly beautiful and hugely inspiring.

The South Devon 10k, half, full and ultra-marathon events sell out every year, and you'll soon see why as you weave your way around the technical coastline, before heading inland to tackle a few of the infamous Devon hills!

This event will be part of the Season Leaderboard!
