Bringing you to your knees over 8.5 hilly miles

The Combe Crawler is our (already) legendary race that's guaranteed to tax the muscles of even the most race-hardened veteran. It is a true cross-country race that encompasses steep coastal paths, stunning views and beautiful countryside running through dramatic North Devon scenery.

This race is usually the last Sunday of November every year, and has proven to be a fun yet challenging competition for everyone who has entered, no matter their experience and ability.

The 11th Combe Crawler will be held on Sunday, 22nd November 2026. Come back for more information when we have it....
