    Runners of the 100 mile, 100 km & 55 km will get a route map

    I’m not great at navigation and whilst out recceing the route found it an easy course to follow. But I understand that navigation is very relative!

    The 21 km is fully marked, and on Sörmlandsleden all the way to Jogersö

  • The 100 mile route is mainly single-track trail, wider farm trails and gravel roads with some sections of asphalt. Mainly following a network of pre-marked trails, Sörmlandsleden, Herrestaleden & Eriksgata.

  • We hope to have a high finishers rate for all of our races, there are volunteers at all manned aid stations who are there to encourage you to keep going and perservere even when things get hard.

    If you feel you need to drop out at any point in the race you must inform the nearest aid station of your decision and if running the 100 miles or 100 km you need to hand over your GPS tracker. A fee will be charged for any unaccounted trackers.

    We will arrange for travel from aid stations to the race centre at Jogersö, if you drop out but bare in mind this my be after the last cut off time so you may be waiting a considerable time before getting a ride back.

  • That is a very subjective question, but I would recommned any 100 miler as your first as long as you really want to do it. Gathering points for future races alone is not going to get you to the finish line of any 100 mile race. No 100 mile footrace is easy and the regular variation between techinal single track and wider more forgiving trails of our 100 mile course will certainly give your legs, and brain, something to reckon with over the hours you are out on the course.

    This section a large amount of the runners will be coming into their second night at that point, so as a little extra security for those who are insecure, we thought it could be appreciated.
