Event overview

Are you looking to step up from a 5K or 10K, training for a full or half marathon, or just looking for a new challenge? Kilomathon could be the run for you.

Ocean Terminal makes a stunning starting point for your run as you set off in the shadow of the Royal Yacht Britannia. Then it's on to Edinburgh's beautiful cycle paths heading inland.

Take in the wonderful surrounds of Victoria Park, and continue your journey on to the home of Scottish Rugby - the BT Murrayfield Stadium. If an epic finishing straight in front of the west stand doesn't inspire your best sprint finish, nothing will!

This event is part of Kilomathon Scotland.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to spectate from the side of the course rather than to run in the event so as to minimise the number of adults on the course and create the best possible environment for the children to enjoy the run. However, if you want to run with your child, this is permitted. If running with your child then please take a position within the start area in the back start pen so as to not obstruct any children who are looking to race and run fast times at the front of the race.

Adults taking part with their child do not need to enter the race themselves.

The race ends in the magnificent Murrayfield Stadium ... A nice medal, snood, water and porridge bar in the finishers bag was nice. William M

Gave me a chance other than Parkrun to get out there with a lot of other people. I had cycled many times along the routes, and enjoyed them. Chris C

 Nice training run. Leanne M
