2024 North Devon AONB Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K

Are you ready to take on the UK's toughest and most beautiful marathon? Whether you are looking for your next running challenge or want to push yourself to try something totally new, the North Devon AONB Marathon and Half Marathon is back and better than ever for its 15th year in 2024.

Each year, places in the North Devon AONB Marathon and Half Marathon sell out in advance, with runners coming back each year to get a PB in this special race. The stunning route stretches across the South West Coast Path and the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (where the race gets its name). This multi-terrain race certainly lives up to its reputation of being as beautiful as it is tough.

Race-day atmosphere is like no other. Imagine arriving to race HQ in the idyllic surfing village of Woolacombe. It's gorgeous sunny day as you line up at the start with hundreds of other runners and supporters, ready to take in beautiful coastal views and tackle an amazing challenge to make a real difference to the lives of local people. It’s also the only marathon where you’re treated to a delicious Devon cream tea at the finish line!

Sign up to the North Devon AONB Marathon and Half Marathon today and make 2024 your year and take on this amazing challenge. Registering with Eventbrite is fast and safe, and you'll receive regular fundraising tips and support from the Fundraising Team right up until race day. Your registration fee makes it possible for us to stage this awesome event and your generous sponsorship is vital. You can ensure that hospice nurses are there to help families facing an incurable illness, every step of the way. When you fundraise for North Devon Hospice, you're making sure that no one in North Devon faces their symptoms and fears alone.

Plastic Free

In our efforts to reduce waste, we will not have disposable cups at water stations. This simply means that if you are not carrying a water bottle etc, you will need to bring some form of cup.

Thank you so much for your support in making this event as waste-free as possible.
