Event Details
**This October, TRIBE are heading to Ibiza for the seventh Run for Love; 100km across the coast from South to North of the Island. Join us for an epic ultra training weekend in the lead up to the challenge!**
Inspired by the new release film, The Salt Path, a true story about a couple who hiked the South West Coastal Path, we’re headed to the Jurassic coast for an ultra training weekend with spectacular coastal views. This is open to anyone, whether you're signed up for Run For Love or not.
ITINERARY
Saturday 27th September
(NB: Suggested trains from London: Saturday: London Paddington 8.03am > Exeter 10.10am. Sunday: Axminster 14:06 > London Paddington 16:54)
10:10am Meet @ Exeter St Davids Railway Station.
For those catching the train from London, we recommend the 8:03am from Paddington, which arrives into Exeter St Davids at 10:10am. We will then be taking a quick taxi from Exeter St Davids to Topsham, where we will begin our run!
The first day is a 48.5km route along the coastal path from Topsham to Beer, Seaton. Although the route can be steep at times with a total elevation of 1,118 meters, the stunning panoramic views definitely make it worthwhile! See day one route map here.
We will be stopping every 10 -15km throughout the route in order to refuel and regroup, with plenty of TRIBE bars consumed along the way!
We will finish up the run at around 5pm @ the YHA Hostel in Beer, Seaton, where we will be staying overnight.
After showering and freshening up, we’ll head out for some pub grub @The Anchor Inn to begin the carb load ahead of day two!
Sunday 28th September
After breakfast at the hostel to fuel up for the day ahead, we’ll set off at around 9am to start our second day of running, a 24km route along the coast to Lyme Regis and up through woodlands to Axminster. See day two route map here.
We aim to be in Axminster for around 12:30-13:00. Perfect timing to grab a bite to eat (or even a Sunday Roast - location TBC) before travelling back home. If you are travelling back to London by train we recommend the 14:06 from Axminster, which gets you back into London Paddington for 16:54.
If you need to head off earlier, you are of course welcome to skip lunch and catch an earlier train back. However, please email macy@wearetribe.co to let us know for table booking numbers!
COSTS
£70pp. The price is inclusive of the following:
Accommodation on the Saturday night (in a dorm room with 4 - 6 people);
Shared Taxi from Exeter St Davids to Topsham;
Planned and guided runs with Strava/ GPX routes available;
TRIBE nutrition throughout the run (although recommended you bring your own snacks/ lunch to supplement this);

**Note that the £70 entry fee does not include your transport to Exeter St Davids on Saturday and from Axminster on Sunday, nor does it include dinner on Saturday night or lunch on Sunday.**
This is a self- supported run so you will need to carry a small backpack with water, snacks, weather- appropriate kit and anything you will want for the overnight stay. A comprehensive kit list will be provided nearer the time.
It is going to be an epic training weekend and we can’t wait to run with you all!
