Sun 4th Oct '09 - Churston Flier 10k
This run is ace and by far the most supa-dupa run on the street of Devon. Generations have been enchanted by the charm and romance of Brixham, a colourful and bustling fishing port at the southern end of Torbay. The hilly town is built around the central harbour area, which remains the lifeblood of this quaint historic town.

Sat 5th Dec '08 - Cockington Christmas Caper (7 Mile)
The Cockington Christmas Caper is approximately 7 miles of mud, sweat and tears through scenic countryside. Cockington village in Torquay is possibly one of the most photographed places in Devon. Its pink cottages, thatched roofs and horse-drawn carriages give it that 'chocolate box' appeal.
