About the event

Why No Name?

This is a self-nav 35 mile Dartmoor Crossing with a difference. The Race With No Name follows the Two Moors Way route (western route).

Who is it for?

This event will appeal to people with a sense of adventure, who are looking for a scenic and runnable way to cross Dartmoor at any time of year. It's also ideal for the first time ultra runner and those of you who want to do a Dartmoor Crossing with excellent. support, safety crews, loads of refreshments on route with either 3 Checkpoints (Ultra) and 24/7 monitoring.

That's because we provide all our runners with trackers. This is for people who can't remember the name of races because they've done so many!

Entrants need to be 20 at least to enter the Ultra.

This is a challenging self navigation ultra, crossing Dartmoor National Park, with minimal ascent. At the 8 mile split at Checkpoint 1 near Yardworthy farm (also the first feed station) you must take the western split, where the Two Moors Way splits in two and rejoins at Widecombe Checkpoint 2.

There will be 3 checkpoints at Yardworthy Farm, Hameldown Ridge (on the road mini car park above Widecombe (mile 17) and Scorriton Village Hall (mile 26). Refreshments will be available at all checkpoints.
