Mad Jack's 5 with Shrewsbury Athletic Club

Now in its seventeenth year, this race is a joint venture between Shrewsbury Athletic Club and the National Trust. The multi-terrain course is approximately 5 miles.
The majority of the course is off road and includes a mixture of pasture land where cattle, sheep and deer can be seen. The course also passes through wooded areas with obstacles such as fallen trees. Also included are several wet / marsh areas (dependent upon weather conditions leading up to the race and on the day).
The Mad Jack's pond is just before the finish of the course and takes in the pond where competitors run or wade through still water that is approximately 0.5 meters deep. This can be very muddy and obviously cold, so be prepared for this popular feature at the end of the race.
