Event overview
The Robin Hood 100 is an ultra trail run based at South Wheatley Village Hall, Retford, Nottinghamshire (DN22 9DH). The event is held every other year, with the next race scheduled for September 2026. The distance is 100 Miles. Entry is limited to 150 runners and the published entry fee is 164. Online entries close three weeks before the event or when the race is full. Entrants must be over 20 years of age.
Course and race logistics
The route follows the Chesterfield Canal towpath to Worksop and then enters Sherwood Forest. Runners complete a roughly 30-mile forest loop twice before returning on the same towpath to the village hall. The route uses forest trails, minor roads and footpaths and passes Creswell Crags, the Welbeck Estate, Clumber Park, the Thoresby Estate and the Major Oak. The course is described as relatively flat with only steady undulations and is fully marked with tape and arrows. Marshals and first aid medics will be present and aid stations are regularly placed and well stocked.
Rules, support and cut offs
The event uses a 30 hour overall cut off. The main non-negotiable mid-race cut off is at Aid Station 3 on the return lap; competitors who cannot finish the remaining 16 miles within the allotted time must stop there. Pacers are permitted from approximately the 50 mile point; only one pacer at a time. Drop bags are available at Aid Station 4 (miles 51.8 and 81.4). Parking at the hall is limited. All HOBO Pace events are fully vegan. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
