Babcock Shettleston 10K
The Babcock Shettleston 10K is part of the Babcock 10K Series and is organised under a Scottish Athletics permit by Shettleston Harriers. The race takes place on a traffic free, flat course around Glasgow Green, passing historical buildings such as the People's Palace and the Royal Doulton fountain, which provide a visible backdrop to the route.
