Runningmonks Rollin' 100

The route will be one continous loop made up of trail, forestry, fields and some back roads. You will travel through three of the most beautiful counties, taking in sections of the Shropshire Way, Offa's Dyke Path and the historic Mortimer's Trail, clocking up around 16,000ft of Elevation. There are some tough climbs, but lots of runnable winding trails.

This route relies on navigation, primarily using the permanent National trail markers, as it largely follows the Shropshire Way, Mortimer Trail, Jack Mytton Way and The Offa's Dyke Path. Therefore, it's essential to download a GPX file to your watch and phone for self-navigation. With no time limit, this is an excellent 100 to practice your navigation skills.

All runners will receive a tracker, so that all your friends and family can keep an eye on your progress, medal, Runningmonk travel cup and t shirt, plus fully stocked aid stations ( all vegan friendly) and lots of support.

CUT OFF & AID STATIONS
There is no cut off time to finish any of our events, but depending how long you are out on the course, it may be that some of the volunteers have left aid stations. However, we will endeavour to get food and drink out to you. There will be 9 aid stations on the route in total, stocked with a variety of food and drink, some hot, some cold.

For anyone looking to travel down the night before, Foxholes Castle camping have camping spots and camping available, please contact the campsite directly to book. We will also have camping available on site.
