The Burrator 10K is a fast, flat route that is almost all on tarmac. It’s also one of the most beautiful 10Ks in the country. Because of the parking situation entry numbers are limited! UK Licence applied for & the event will be run under UK athletics rules. The race is on closed roads & starts right on the Dam bridge.
The stunning setting is also perfect for a PB. It starts about 1K south east of the visitor centre and does one complete loop of the reservoir and then 2/3rds of a second loop before finishing at exactly 10K about 400 metres north of HQ (the visitor centre). There is just 90 metres of climbing on this course and we’re sure a top runner in good conditions could break 30 minutes. However it’s also ideal for fun runners and beginners and many competitors notch up PBs here. We also have 2K & 1K support races for children aged 3-14.
There will be four separate categories for Under 8s, 8-9, 9-11, 12-14. We make an effort with our kids races so you can expect chip timing, a finishing arch & podium presentations. The kids race is on trails & is uphill on the way out & downhill on the way back.
