Strathclyde Park 5k, 10k and Half Marathon
Up and Running Events stages three distances at Strathclyde Country Park in Motherwell. The routes run around Strathclyde Loch and through the park’s path network, using wide, smooth waterside paths with very little elevation.
Distances
- 5K: flat out and back alongside Strathclyde Loch.
- 10K: out and back then one full loop of the park.
- Half Marathon: out and back then three loops to total 21.1 km.
The course is fully waymarked with kilometre markers, directional arrows and marshals. Hydration stations and first aid are provided along the route. Races are chip timed and include free race photography, a bespoke finisher medal and a finisher goody bag. The layout emphasizes long, flat sections beside the water, which allow runners to maintain a steady pace. Runners completing multiple laps are responsible for keeping track of their own lap count.
The event location is Strathclyde Country Park, 366 Hamilton Rd, Motherwell ML1 3ED, UK. The nearest train stations are Motherwell and Hamilton Central. Race bibs and timing chips are collected at the registration desk on race day, and event communications are sent to participants in the lead up to the event.
