Pagan Trails Half Marathon
Pagan Trails Half Marathon is a winter trail half marathon held in Chagford, United Kingdom, in January. It runs through the north-eastern part of Dartmoor, and both the half marathon and the shorter race start and finish at Chagford Cricket and Football Club.
The route is demanding. It crosses remote, exposed moorland and climbs almost 700 metres in total, and the distance comes out at well over 14 miles. Along the way it visits ancient stone circles and other sites linked to pagan history, which gives the course its name and its character.
Because it takes place in the depths of winter on open moor, the going can be wet and rough underfoot. Route maps are published as PDF and GPX files so runners can study the course and train on it beforehand.

Good fit if you…
