Hundred Hills 50km
The Hundred Hills 50km is a trail ultramarathon held in the Chiltern countryside. The event starts and finishes at the historic 850 year old Stonor Park. The course is designed as two distinct 25 km loops, totaling approximately 50 km (31.1 miles).
The route features 4000 feet of total ascent and 4000 feet of descent. Runners traverse ancient woodland and picturesque villages, following a marked trail through the heart of the hills. The event has a total time limit of 9 hours, making it an option for those transitioning to longer ultra-distances or looking for an early season race.
Participants are supported by five stocked aid stations located throughout the course. These stations provide water, electrolyte drinks, gels, fruit, and various snacks. Medical teams are stationed at the finish line and roving across the course to assist as needed.
There is a mandatory kit list that all runners must carry for the duration of the race. This includes:
- A fully charged mobile phone.
- Water containers with at least 1 litre capacity.
- A survival blanket and a whistle.
- A waterproof jacket with sealed seams.
- A separate long-sleeved base layer or fleece top.
- A reusable cup.
The event is held at Stonor Park, where spectators can gather at the start, halfway point, and finish. Facilities at the venue include street food and coffee for friends and family. All finishers receive a medal, and additional awards are presented to top overall finishers and age category winners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
