Rame Head Race – Brought to you by Sportiva
Saturday 13th June – from 9.30am
A chance to run round the stunning Mount Edgcumbe Peninsula. It’s a single loop 10.6K run loop that’s is mostly on coast path. It also means that the two lap run is exactly a full half marathon and four laps makes a marathon. This route really is a corker with great views & terrain all the way. It also has a good mix of hills and flatter, faster sections.
For 2026 we’ve added kids races. We’re also starting the 10K and half marathon together. This is because there are some single track sections so starting together should mean a clear run for faster runners.
The Marathon has a cut off time of 7 1/2 hours.

Plymouth Swim @ Mount Edgcumbe – Brought to you by Sportiva
Sunday 14th June – from 9.00am
Plymouth Swim, in the sheltered waters of Barn Pool Beach. It’s a stunning location in the heart of Mount Edgcumbe Country Park & just a short ferry ride from Plymouth
We are offering three distances 750m (1 lap) 1500m (2 laps) & 3K (4 laps). n.b. we are using the same 750m lap for all three distances as a longer course runs the risk of swimmers hitting the strong current that’s further out from the beach.
