Rosehip
You could leave a car at Frosts and start /finish from there, or by the green in Beeston and start where the start of the route is

mulbs/ Frobester - GeeeM has great advice there.
IMO too many miles can lead to injury (for me anyway) and I like to take it easy in between long races. I peak in my mileage 3 weeks before a race so I can have a nice long taper and feel really in the mood for running. If you are interested these are my plans until June:
15th Mar D33 (33 miles) Flat
26th Apr Highland Fling (53 miles) Hilly
21st Jun West Highland Way Race (95 miles) Hilly
I plan to build up after D33 to Fling by doing a 20+ miler on 5th April then taper again to 26th.
After Fling take it easy until WHW. Maybe a couple of 20+ milers. My only worry is my ITB niggle which increases with too much too fast on road so I will try to run on hills/ trails.

The Bogman
it's the 5th Sept event that lurks at the end of all that!
Mind the Zion 100 sounds great too. My sister lives in Nevada and I love running out there (not in summer though!)
