Race format
This is an event with no official route. There are four loops to choose from of varying distance and it is up to you whether you run all of them or stick to one you like.
Team mates will run one at a time to log as many miles as a team as you can in the allocated 12 hours. An experienced ultra runner may choose to run all four loops in one go, whereas a less experienced runner may choose to run the shortest or least difficult loop. It's up to you how you make up the mileage.
Which loops do you take on? How much of the Luna Trail Relay route can you complete? How many people will be in your team? How far can you go?
At Luna Relay these decisions are yours as you plan how you want to take on the challenge of Dawn 'til Dusk.
Race routes
Our provisional route map has four loops that take in grassland meadows, dense woodland trails, across single tracks and definitely up and down hills. But you won't give a second's thought about terrain or difficulty because the scenery will be stunning.
Our loops have been designed to offer different levels of running and coloured to highlight the difficulty. Doing all four will be a real challenge.
Your strategy and experience will also depend on your team size. If you are a team of two, taking on the Dawn 'til Dusk challenge will mean something different to you and your achievement or goal will likely be different from those in a team of 6.
Team performances
How well you do at Luna Relay can be measured by how much fun you’ve had, how many new friends you’ve made and possibly overcoming some of the challenges thrown at you by taking part in a 12 hour relay.
However, we want to give you and your team a target to shoot at. We will be awarding Gold, Silver and Bronze medals based on how far your team covers. All participants will receive an event T-shirt as part of their entry.
Ultimately the memories you create are the most important part of Luna Trail Relay!
| Solo | Pair | 3-5 | 6-8 | 9-10 | |

Event Village
& Camping
The Event Village is the hub of Luna Trail Relay. The start and finish of each loop where runners changeover, will also be positioned here.
Here you can enjoy good food, great coffee (essential), some retail therapy and opportunities for R&R. Most importantly, this is where your team's strategy can be devised, runners will refuel and recover, and where the team spirit and camaraderie is created.
All runners and teams are invited to camp as part of the Luna Trail Relay experience. The Campsite will be located next to the Event Village. Entry fees will include one night of camping for all runners. Extra nights and glamping opportunities will be available, as will space for campers and caravans. Friends and family are welcome at Luna Relay, and spectator camping spots will be available. (We won't be allowing dogs at Luna on account of wild animals, such as deer that live on the event site.)
Make a weekend of it with friends and family at Luna, for an unforgettable weekend of running and escapism in beautiful countryside.
