About Newnham 8 and 4 Mile trail race + canix
Runners looking for something between the standard race distances will find their match at Newnham in late August. The 8 mile and 4 mile trail options, held on the private Newnham estate on the outskirts of Plymouth, offer an alternative to the usual 5K, 10K and half marathon circuits. The 8 miler suits those building up to a half marathon or marathon, while the 4 miler bridges the gap between 5K and 10K or provides a shorter trail option.
Both races take place as an early evening event in Binicliff Wood, Devon, on 28 August 2026. Proceeds from the races support the work of Bowel Cancer West.
