Kinloss Running Festival
The Kinloss Running Festival, held at Kinloss Barracks Training Area on Scotland's Moray coast, offers a unique running experience on roads and runways within a military setting. Scheduled for August 30-31, 2025, the event features multiple distances including a 1K Fun Run, 5K, 10K, and the Ray Hughes Half Marathon, all on flat, officially measured courses with minimal elevation. A standout is the Back Yard Ultra, a challenging 4.1-mile loop run hourly until one runner remains, combining off-road trails by day and flat runway loops by night.
The festival emphasizes safety, community spirit, and supports military charities, providing a well-organized race village with amenities and aid stations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
