About Mercia Handicap

The Mercia Handicap takes runners onto Plush Hill on the Long Mynd near Church Stretton in Shropshire. This 9 km fell race on 25 October 2026 combines approximately 450 metres of climbing with a staggered start format based on handicap, meaning faster runners set off after those expected to be slower, with all aiming to cross the finish line together.

Entry on the day is available for those aged 18 and over, though pre-entry is not offered. Individual runners only—no team entries are accepted. The event is UK Athletics insured and organised by Mercia running club, with entry handled directly by the organisers.
