Thames Path 100
The Thames Path 100 is a 100 mile continuous point to point trail race that follows the Thames Path from Richmond in South West London to the centre of Oxford. The course profile is relatively low in climb with a total ascent of 1900 feet (approximately 560 m) and is mostly on groomed paths and paved riverside paths.
The route is marked using permanent National Trail posts and additional Centurion ribbons and arrows. There are at least twelve aid stations on course offering water, electrolyte drinks, sports nutrition, snacks, sandwiches and some hot food; hot drinks are available from Hurley onwards and hot food is provided at Henley, Goring and the finish. Cut off for the race is 30 hours. Medical support is provided throughout the event.
Entries are limited to 300 starters. The standard entry fee is £225 (£227 for unaffiliated runners). To enter, runners must have completed a minimum 50 mile race within 15 hours in the qualifying period. Runners may be permitted pacers from the Henley aid station (mile 51); pacers must travel on foot and only one pacer may accompany a runner at a time.
Mandatory kit must be carried at all times and will be checked; missing required items incurs a one hour time penalty. Drop bags are accepted for specific aid stations and finish line collection. GPX and KML route files are available for navigation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
