Alexandra Park 5k/10k - Glasgow
Alexandra Park 5k/10k is a road running event held in Glasgow at Alexandra Parade, G31 2ER. The event offers two distances:
- 5 km
- 10 km
Races are fully chip timed and the course is measured. Race chips are attached to the race bib issued at the registration desk on the day of the event and should be secured to an outer garment. Finishers receive a quality medal. The event provides hydration stations, kilometre markers, course marshals, music, an instructor-led warm up, and goody bags that include sports nutrition snacks and offers for runners.
Age guidelines follow Scottish Athletics: 5k runners should be 11 or older; 10k runners should be older than 15. Children remain the responsibility of their parent or guardian, who should remain onsite.
Online entries typically close two days before the event unless the event sells out. On-the-day entries are usually available and are allocated on a first come, first served basis; typical cash prices for on-the-day entries are £20 for the 5k and £25 for the 10k. Volunteer roles are available and include event support, marshaling, and registration; volunteers receive refreshments and a free entry to an Up and Running Event.
