Thames Path 100
The Thames Path 100 is a 100 miles continuous, point to point trail race following the Thames Path from Richmond in south west London to Queen's College Sports Ground in Oxford. The route is largely flat with a total climb of 1900 ft (560 m) and is described as fast, with most of the distance on groomed paths, trails and paved pathways. Terrain is approximately 75% trail and 25% paved.
The course is marked using permanent national trail markers and additional Centurion ribbons and arrows. Runners must finish within a 30 hour limit; there are cut offs at every aid station to support this. There will be at least twelve aid stations providing water, sports drinks, gels and chews, snacks, fruit, sandwiches and other hot and cold options. Hot drinks are available from Hurley onwards and hot food is provided at Henley, Goring and the finish.
Entry details include an entry fee of £225 (£227 for unaffiliated runners) and a qualification requirement of a completed 50 mile race within 15 hours between 1 January 2022 and race day. Pacers are permitted from Mile 51 at Henley and must travel on foot; multiple pacers are allowed but only one may accompany the runner at any time. Crewing and pacer handover points are limited to specified locations.
Mandatory kit must be carried at all times and will be checked before, during and after the race. A one hour time penalty is applied for any missing mandatory item. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
