Mad Jack's 5 is an established five mile trail race through the extensive grounds of the National Trust's Attingham Park near Shrewsbury. Organised jointly by Shrewsbury AC and the National Trust, the event explores the historic estate across a varied off road course.
Runners follow a relatively flat route across open pasture and through woodland, with wet and marshy sections adding variety along the way. The signature feature comes just before the finish at Mad Jack's Pond, where competitors run or wade through the water before completing the final stretch of the course.
The race is held under UK Athletics rules with a Trail Running Association licence and welcomes runners aged 16 and over. With open parkland, wooded sections and the famous pond finale, Mad Jack's 5 provides a distinctive trail running experience in the surroundings of Attingham Park.
