UPDATE 31st DECEMBER 2020
FOLLOWING THE GOVERNMENT GUIDELINE ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING THE RE-ALLOCATION OF DEVON AREAS TO HIGHER COVID-19 TIER 3 THE LEAGUE ORGANISERS HAVE DECIDED NOT TO HOLD THIS EVENT ON SUN 31st JAN, 2021.
Although Elite athlete and U18 competition are still permitted we feel that bringing together up to 500 runners plus U18's accompanying parents is not appropriate at the moment.
PLEASE FOLLOW THE GUIDELINES
STAY SAFE & HEALTHY AND LET'S HOPE 2021 BRINGS HAPPIER TIMES FOR US ALL.

Government Guidelines: Tier 3 Very High alert - affects the whole of Devon.
Around 1 in 3 people with Covid-19 have no symptoms so will be spreading the virus without realising. We must all take action to protect each other and our hospital capacity.
