Description:
The autumn 100 is a 100 mile continuous trail race based in the twinned villages of goring & streatley on the river thames. the course reflects the shape of a cross and takes runners on a series of 4 different 25 mile out and back spurs using sections of both the ridgeway and thames path national trails.
Runners will depart from Goring at 0900 on Saturday 16th October and make their way to Little Wittenham on the first out and back section on the Thames Path. On returning to Goring, runners will be faced with the more challenging but beautiful second spur of the course, out to Swyncombe Farm on the Ridgeway before returning to Goring a second time. Spur three takes runners west on the Ridgeway to Chain Hill before returning to Goring for the final leg on the Thames Path to Reading and return for their 100 mile finish.
The difficulty of this race should not be underestimated. During a dry spell the route is flat, fast and picturesque presenting ideal conditions for a trail 100. However, runners will also be faced with up to 13 hours of darkness and the possibility of low temperatures and wet and windy conditions. Conditions underfoot can vary dramatically.
