Hilly 100 Road Relay

The race is a 100 mile relay of 10 legs of approximately 10 miles each. To qualify for the main trophy, teams must consist of 10 runners (male, female or mixed) each completing one 10 mile leg. The route starts from the centre of Stratford-upon-Avon at various times in the early morning (main race 7am) with a view to completing the course by about 5.30 – 6.00pm the same day.

It is possible for a team to split legs amongst more runners, but then that team is not eligible for the main trophy. There are also trophies for teams starting at 5.00am and 6.00am, a ladies only team trophy and a memento for each runner taking part.

The route is circuitous around the Cotswolds using country lanes as far as possible, but inevitably some main roads have to be negotiated, so there are safety issues to consider. Each runner has to be responsible for his/her own safety, since due to the nature of the event there are no marshals or First Aid facilities available. As the name of the race implies, it is quite hilly in places, with some legs being notoriously difficult.

Route instructions and maps are issued beforehand, and although the route is marked with small arrows at each turning point, it is each runner’s responsibility to negotiate the route successfully. Teams generally support each other in cars or minibus, driving round the course to drop runners for the start of their leg and picking up at the end etc.
