Event overview

“…a brute of a race with some outstanding views…”, previously voted one of the best races in the country. The Exe to Axe is a challenging trail run from Exmouth to Seaton along the South West Coast Path. The race was the brain child of John Perratt, a talented local runner and founder member of the club who you would still see near the front of a race in his 70s. John loved a challenge, which is why he created this race. Thankfully, it’s not only difficult… it’s beautiful! This year we’re running three events in one: The Exe to Axe – the full 22 miles. The Exe to Axe Relay – 2, 3 or 4 runners per team
• The Sid to Axe – the second and most challenging half from Sidmouth. Whichever event you choose, you won’t be disappointed. All three are great fun (if you get your fun from a challenge).

This event is part of Exe to Axe.

Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
