The vast majority of records and fastest times have been set since 2002 (event 35) when the hike route was changed to start at Old Cardington Lane instead of Church Stretton School: previously a mass start would take place along the road outside the school and participants would run along the road to All Stretton and then cross the A49 to tackle The Lawley first. In the process of this change, Caer Caradoc became the first checkpoint instead of the last checkpoint and an additional self-punch checkpoint was added at Minton.
