Event overview

Starting and finishing from Saughton Park, close to the city centre, the 25km and marathon will follow a traffic-free route along tranquil green corridors out of the city and quickly head up into the stunning Pentland Hills. The views of Edinburgh and surrounding areas will be breathtaking. The return journey will utilise the same route to ensure a smooth and seamless final few miles back into the city and that well earned finish line.

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
