MTC Spring heeled jack

Street art, historic architecture, and the green landscapes outside town give this road race its character. The MTC Spring Heeled Jack reads like a long, no-nonsense challenge for seasoned runners and people who like finding out where their endurance really sits, with an urban start and enough surrounding countryside to keep the day from feeling like one long strip of pavement. Expect to “hit the tarmac” on a demanding route that tests patience as much as legs. The notes call it both technical and quick, with varied landscapes and those rare stretches of pure running happiness when the pace settles and the field gets quiet. The crowd is likely to be runners who know what they are signing up for: experienced, challenge-hungry, and carried along by a friendly spirit and the enthusiasm of the participants.
