Ditsum Dash

Last year was the inaugural Dittisham 5k race and children’s fun run, which was a great success.  

This year the event returns with two children’s races, one for 10 years and under and one for 11-14 years.  

The 5k race will be open to 15 years plus with no upper age limit. 

This is a pretty challenging race as it incorporates some rather steep hills, but don’t let that put you off as there are also some stunning views of the river Dart at the start and finish, not forgetting what goes up must come down.  The race is mostly on country lanes with a couple of off-road sections.  All 5k race finishers will be awarded a medal, a piece of fruit kindly donated by Morrison’s, Totnes and water donated by Water in a Box, a plastic free alternative to water on the go.  

Registration opens at 9am and the first children’s race starts at 10am with the main race at 10.45am.
