Many of you will know of St Piran as the patron saint of tin miners, but recent archeological finds have shed light on a little known fact. St Piran is also the patron saint of Cornish Trail Runners.

We feel that the course of the Revenge would have his full approval. Last year, St Piran’s Revenge sold out in under 48 hours. This year we are back for more glorious hills, sand and more hills. The race is a very challenging, multi terrain route that starts on Perranporth Beach and includes speedy coast path sections, steep dune ascents and descents and even St Piran’s beloved 6th Century Oratory along the way. You’ll get over 1000 feet of climbing on a course that is approximately 6 miles. It’s a tough one but ultimately satisfying – the closest you’ll get to Fell Race by a beach. This is a back to basics race, organised with a fell racing ethos in mind. We are keen to ensure that the carbon footprint of the event is kept to a minimum. So what does this mean. No medals I’m afraid or goody bags / post race swag (although we may give you something recycled at the end). There are no water stations on the course.
