A Flat Coastal Course on Private Roads
The Barry Buddon FAST Half Marathon is a single lap distance race held on the east coast of Scotland. The event follows a route consisting entirely of private, closed, and traffic-free roads. This environment allows participants to focus on their pace without the presence of vehicles.
The course is notable for its profile, as it is described as the flattest half marathon in Scotland and potentially the entire United Kingdom. The route begins and ends at a single start and finish point. While following the looped course, participants pass through sections that provide views of the surrounding coastal scenery.
Participants must be at least 17 years old to enter the event. Registration remains open until the evening before the race date. The event comprises the following distance:
- 21.1 km (Half Marathon)
The surfaces used throughout the race are paved roads, and the layout is designed for those seeking a fast performance on a level terrain. Entry fees are set at a standard rate with a small additional booking fee, and the event is organized by MacTuff Events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
