Heart's Club Classics with Toby Anstis 7pm - 11pm
Entries for The North Devon AONB Marathon and Half Marathon were closed long ago, showing its amazing popularity in only its second year.
But please come along and support all the runners who are tackling this demanding yet beautiful course, with Woolacombe Bay as the centre-point. The Heart Angels will be there from 8.30am to join in the cheering and take lots of pics.
They'll be handing out Heart water bottles, flags and encouragement cards...as well as entry forms to win tickets in our Take That competition.
Heart are also sponsoring the Male Over 50 veteran category in the marathon, and we'll be presenting the trophy to the winner of this category.
Runners follow a figure-of-eight around some stunning coastal scenery and inland treats, around Baggy to Croyde and Morte Point to Lee - all within North Devon’s magnificent Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The steep inclines and mixture of terrain is enough to test any experienced runner.
Start time is 10am at The Green, The Esplanade, Woolacombe, Devon EX34 7DJ. See the map here

The race is organised to raise vital funds for North Devon Hospice. By taking part, not only will you experience a fantastic event, but you will also be helping us care for local patients, families and carers who are suffering from the impact of a life-threatening illness.
