Race details and logistics
- 10k
- Half marathon
The 10k route begins with a short uphill section, followed by about 2.5 km of downhill and then mostly flat running. The half marathon includes roughly six miles of uphill in the middle section, with the final five miles mixed downhill or flat. The event uses wave starts allocated by estimated time; runners may move to a slower wave by assembling with that wave but cannot move to a faster wave. Baggage buses are provided near the start and are colour-coded by wave, and bags are collected using the race number at Glasgow Green. A free event app provides live tracking, split times and event-day results. Road closures and zone maps are published for the city. Participants receive a medal, optional finisher tee, finisher bag and access to official event photos and runner discounts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
