Prosper Events

Prosper Events is a small Taunton-based outfit putting on trail races in Somerset: a hilly half marathon on the Quantock Hills, a 10K and half in the Blackdown Hills from Taunton Racecourse, and a flat 10K and half along Taunton's waterways. The team also offers run coaching and chip timing for other events. Races are capped at a few hundred runners, fully waymarked with pink flags and orange signs, and chip timed, with a four-hour cut-off and a minimum age of 17. Feed stations have a reputation for being generous, finishers get a large locally made wooden medal, and the Quantocks race offers on-site camping and bunkhouse space the night before. Entries go through their Eventrac pages.
