The Moray Marathon
The Moray Marathon is a road running event held in the North and East of Scotland. Managed by Chilled Running, the event takes place in the spring and follows a course along the Moray coastline. The races start and finish at the Morriston Running Track in Elgin.
Participants can choose between two race distances:
- The Marathon (26.2 miles)
- The Chilled 20 (20 miles)
The course is described as flat and fast, making it suitable for participants seeking qualifying times. Both distances are chip-timed and are Scottish Athletics approved. The marathon serves as a qualifying race for events such as the Boston Marathon and London Championship Entry. The 20-mile race joins the full marathon route at the 6.2-mile mark and continues along the same path to the finish line.
The event includes a family-friendly finishing area and features on-course photography. Sponsored prizes are awarded for the top three male and female finishers, as well as for various age categories ranging from V40 to V70. The races are designed to accommodate runners of different abilities, with specific support mentioned for elite athletes and first-time participants.
