100 Miles and Runnin' is an EP by American hip hop group N.W.A, released in 1990 on Ruthless Records. It is the group's third release following their 1988 album Straight Outta Compton.

Prior to recording the EP, all five of the group members had signed a long-term contract with the Ruthless Records label. However, member and lead vocalist Ice Cube refused the contract's terms and consequently separated himself from the group, which kicked off his solo career. 100 Miles and Runnin' therefore features many sardonic references to Ice Cube. MC Ren and The D.O.C. wrote the lyrics used by Eazy-E and Dr. Dre.

Although the album was released as an EP, it nevertheless hit the charts and reached platinum certification two years after its release for over one million copies sold.
