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 14,000ft of Elevation. This is a course with no particularly brutal climbs, just the rolling hills that the three Counties have on offer...with the exception of a few tougher tests here and there!
