Charlie Kilshaw Memorial 5 Mile Race

The Charlie Kilshaw Memorial 5 Mile Race is a commemorative running event held at the Milngavie Waterworks near Glasgow, featuring a scenic course of roughly two loops around the reservoirs. Open to runners aged 15 and older, the race includes both junior (under 17) and senior categories, all covering the same 5-mile distance. The event honors Charlie Kilshaw, a beloved member of the Garscube Harriers running club.

Participants can park at a nearby Nuffield Health center with a short walk to the start. Facilities include public toilets but no changing or shower areas. Entry fees support the club’s chosen charities, and prizes are awarded across male, female, and non-binary divisions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
