A 64-mile ultramarathon will be passing through Seaton and the surrounding area at the end of April.

Starting from Offwell Village Hall, near Honiton, at 5.30am on Saturday, April 30, the East Devon Round will see about 100 participants take on the 64-mile route.

This will include 10,000 feet of climbing and links both the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and the Blackdown Hills AONB, plus the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site in one incredible day of running.

Last year, the fastest competitor completed the course in 11 hours and 46 minutes.

This year's route aims to showcase some of the highlights of East Devon, and passes near or through Offwell, Cotleigh, Dalwood, Axminster, Lyme Regis, Seaton, Sidbury, Gittisham, Honiton, Dunkeswell, Luppitt and Combe Raleigh.

The event will raise funds for Combe Raleigh Playgroup, Offwell Village School and the Rich Wigram NZ Farming Scholarship.
