Glen Ogle 33

The route takes you through the village of Killin, past the Falls of Dochert and up into the hills above Killin. It then heads out and down over the famous Glen Ogle Viaduct with checkpoint/water stations at 4, 8 and 16 miles. The route heads to Balquidder, the burial place of Rob Roy MacGregor, with 3 miles then to Strathyre and the Shoogly Bridge and the halfway checkpoint in the race where you can have a drop bag. If runners are not in and out of Strathyre by 12.30pm they will be removed from the race. The return route takes you up onto the Rob Roy Way and past the Mhor 84 hotel, returning back over the Glen Ogle Viaduct and the pass of Glen Ogle with a nice 4 mile downhill section to the finish in Killin. The route is marked with yellow/black arrow directional markers or with eco friendly marker paint. In addition to the race markers there are blue cycle route No 7 markers which will keep runners right. Runners will be required to carry mandatory kit which will be confirmed in the race briefing sent out 3 weeks before the race. Check the race rules below for an idea. This will include a small first aid kit for running repairs. Runners are reminded to read and understand the full race briefing and should ask any questions if they are in any doubt about any information. “I didn’t know” is not an excuse and will lead to disqualification.
