10 Mile Turkey Trot
The 10 Mile Turkey Trot takes place on 13 December 2026 in Lossiemouth. It is a chip timed, 10-mile road race approved by Scottish Athletics and run entirely on public roads.
The course starts at Lossiemouth Leisure Centre, runs toward Lossiemouth Harbour, follows coastal roads toward Covesea, turns around the airbase and returns into Lossie. There is a water station at the halfway point. The event is not a closed road race.
Race rules require participants to be over 18 on race day. Running with buggies or pets is not permitted. Headphones must be bone conducting; in-ear headphones will result in disqualification. A 2.5 hour cut-off applies and marshals and course support are withdrawn at cut-off times. Runners who expect to take longer than two hours are required to start in the first wave to receive full course support.
Registration, bib and shoe timing chip collection take place at the back of Lossiemouth Sports & Community Centre, Coulardbank Road, Lossiemouth IV31 6JU; photo ID is required to collect a bib. There are changing facilities, showers and toilets at the community centre and shoe covers must be worn inside. Bags can be left at the centre but the organiser accepts no liability for belongings.
Parking is available at the leisure centre and at Lossiemouth East and West Beach car parks; parking on residential streets should be considerate. A coffee van will be at start and finish, free refreshments will be provided at the finish, and free race photography will be available. Awards are given to the top three male and top three female finishers on gun time, with further awards by age category. No bib transfers, deferrals or refunds are permitted.
