MTC JOGLE
The MTC JOGLE is a multi-day road ultramarathon following the route from John O'Groats to Land's End over 17 days. The published total distance is 852.3 miles, averaging about 50 miles per day. Entrant numbers are limited to 12 and all entrants must be at least 20 years old on the start day.
The event is supported with shared accommodation provided from the end of Day 1 through the end of Day 16; competitors must arrange their own accommodation at John O'Groats and after the finish at Land's End. The organiser provides checkpoint food at roughly eight mile intervals, with menu items including malt loaf, sandwiches, sweets, squash, cola and water. Competitors complete a dietary form and may be asked to supply supplementary food for special requirements.
There is a mandatory kit list and competitors must carry items such as a backpack, head torch with spare batteries, route maps as provided, compass or GPS device, whistle, mobile phone and a basic first aid pack. Maps and GPX files are supplied to entrants only, typically emailed about four weeks before the event. Each entrant receives a tracking device with an SOS function.
The event enforces time restrictions based on a minimum average pace of 4.0 miles per hour. Falling below this pace may result in withdrawal. No competitor may continue on course after 22:00.
