This year, The Great Scottish Run returns on 3rd October and YOU can be part of it.
Here’s your chance to make the most of all of that lockdown running and put that training to good use.
Entries will be opening soon!
In the meantime, why not consider some other running challenges?
Now more than ever we need to look after our mental and physical health by staying active. So Great Run have created a series of virtual running challenges to help you start the year strong and build your fitness for the start line in October!
This is designed to keep you racking up the miles over a 7 or 28-day period. Choose from 7 miles, 50k, 100k or 150k.
If you reach or exceed the distance across the challenge period, your efforts will be rewarded with an awesome medal!
The February Accumulator will be the perfect run buddy to keep you moving through February.
The challenge is to complete 14 runs (or more) of any distance in February – your reward is a special medal - the best Valentine’s gift a runner could ask for!
The challenge starts on 1 February and ends on 28 February, and you can join the challenge anytime from now up to Monday 8 February at 10am, when entries close.
Good luck, and make sure you take Capital Scotland with you on your route!
