Robin Hood 100
The Robin Hood 100 is a 100 mile trail ultramarathon held in South Wheatley, Nottinghamshire, through Sherwood Forest and surrounding parks. The route leads from the village hall along the Chesterfield Canal towpath to Manton, then joins a roughly 30 mile forest loop through the heart of Sherwood Forest that is completed twice on the course. The route passes Clumber Park, farmland, lodges, Creswell Crags, and skirts the Welbeck Estate, and runs past the Major Oak.
The course is described as relatively flat with no major climbs. The event provides a fully marked route, well-stocked aid stations, drop bag access at miles 22, 51, and 81, and medal and trophies for finishers. Pacers are allowed from about mile 51 to the finish with one pacer at a time. Crews are allowed and aid stations are intended to support unsupported runners.
Practical details include a 30 hour overall cutoff and a policy that entries close three weeks before the event or when full; no entries on the day. There is no public transport on race morning; the nearest train stations are Retford or Gainsborough, about 10 to 15 minutes by car. GPS trackers are not used due to forest reception; runners are recorded at aid stations and phone tracking apps are recommended for crews. Final instructions are emailed two weeks before the race.
