Please note: this is a category CL fell race fun under FRA rules and there is no discount for England Athletics-affiliated runners. No dogs are allowed. There is no cut-off point, but, in adverse conditions, marshals may be withdrawn after 3 hours 30 and all remaining runners on the course are required to return to race HQ. Runners must be aged 18 or over on race day.
The Mendip Muddle is a 20km multi-terrain race. The route is tough (there is 420m of climb), but very interesting, set in some of the finest scenery in the West Country; Roman lead mines, underground rivers, a nature reserve, open moorland, potholes, an ancient rabbit warren, an Iron Age fort, deciduous and conifer forest, and prehistoric tumuli. The race will be run under FRA regulations. The start of the race is 10:30 am. If spaces are left, there will be entry on the day for £20.
There will be drinks stations at approximately 5, 10, and 15 km, and First Aid facilities will be available on the course and at the finish. At race headquarters at the Charterhouse Centre, there are toilet facilities, but changing facilities are limited. Water will be available at the finish. However, to reduce the use of plastic, we encourage all runners to bring their own reusable drink bottles. Car parking space is limited, so please share if you can.
There will be a prize for the first three male and female runners and for the first MV40, FV40, MV50, FV50, MV60, and FV60—one prize per winner. In the event of veteran runners finishing in the first three of their gender, the respective veteran prize will be awarded to the second runner in that category. Each competitor will receive a race memento. The prize ceremony will be on the day around 12:15 pm.
NB You must be aged 18 or over on 27 October 2024 to enter this race.
