MTC Redcap

MTC REDCAP is a 55-mile, single-day ultra that starts at the Gretna Chase Hotel on the England–Scotland border and finishes at the Traquair Arms Hotel in Innerleithen. It’s part of the Mount to Coast End to End Challenge and doubles as Day 1 of the SCOTIA nine-day event, so REDCAP runners share the route with Scotia competitors. The course passes through Lockerbie, Langholm and Selkirk before ending in the Scottish Borders.

Features include a cup-free policy, mandatory kit, real-time tracking, and pre-set check-points with cut-offs. Finishers receive a medal (with optional shirt and hi-viz jacket), and Scotia’s myth-inspired theme adds a folklore twist. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
