Course and logistics
The route follows the Chesterfield Canal towpath into Sherwood Forest, then completes a roughly 30 mile Sherwood loop twice before returning along the towpath to the hall. The course passes Creswell Crags, Clumber Park, the Welbeck and Thoresby estates, and the Major Oak. Underfoot is described as runnable trail with generally steady undulations and no major climbs. The event is fully marked and marshalled with regular, well stocked aid stations, first aid medics on course, and small first aid kits at aid stations.
Cut-offs use a 30 hour finish limit; a key non-negotiable cut off is enforced at Aid Station 3 on the return lap to ensure remaining distance can be completed within the 30 hour limit. Pacers are allowed from about mile 50 (Aid Station 4) with one pacer at a time. Drop bags are held at Aid Station 4 (miles 51.8 and 81.4). Trackers are not used; runner accounting is by aid station recording. Parking at the hall is limited. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
