About the event
Flying Gazelle West Bay (Bridport) 10k and Half Marathon. Two weeks to run the route. Run it anytime of day within the two week event window.
This is a course in which you can either test yourself and go for it, which would be a challenge considering it's hills... or you can take it easy and have a lovely hike and take in the scenery. Either way, it's a great route. The race starts at the promenade at West Bay, surrounded by the hustling fish & chip vans, which you can reward yourself with after. You then will run west towards the historical landmark that is Thorncombe Beacon, which is some climb. You then head back around through grassy paths and trail and make your way back to West Bay.

Flying Gazelle Running is a family run project based in Dorset, England. We have a passion for running and wanted to express this by creating race events that are flexible and tailored to you.
As qualified Clinical Psychologists working in the NHS, we have experienced first hand the benefits that getting outdoors and walking/running can have on a persons physical and mental health. So this is our way to promote running, make it fun and interesting (and also challenging), and support mental health by hosting events each year in which 100% of profits go to mental health charities. We also plant 5 trees alongside every entry, to improve our carbon footprint.
Our events are for any and every runner, from the beginner to the seasoned pro. The difficulty of any race is determined by how much the runner puts in. You can walk, run, or sprint... we leave that up to you.
