The MTC Glaistig is a challenging 31-mile ultra marathon held in Scotland, forming Day 2 of the nine-day Mount to Coast SCOTIA End to End Challenge. The race starts at the Traquair Arms Hotel in Innerleithen and finishes at the Travelodge Edinburgh Airport, featuring a route with approximately 2,793 feet of ascent and 3,138 feet of descent. Limited to 40 participants, including SCOTIA competitors, the event demands a minimum pace of 4 mph with cut-off times at checkpoints.

Runners navigate largely unsigned trails with provided maps and GPS, carrying mandatory safety gear. Finishers receive a bespoke Glaistig medal, with trophies awarded to male and female champions. The race embraces Scottish mythology, named after the Glaistig, a mythical Scottish ghost. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
