Event Information
The William Wallace Running Festival offers two running events in Stirling, Scotland: the Braveheart 10km and the Wallace Warriors 1 mile Fun Run. Both events take place on 10 October 2026. The start and finish for both runs is at Stirling Cricket Club, The Peak Stirling (FK7 7WS). Registration opens at 08:30.
Braveheart 10km This is described as a fast and flat route. It starts in view of the Wallace Monument, follows the River Forth, and crosses the historic Old Stirling Bridge, rebuilt many times after battles such as the one in 1297. Participants receive a finisher's medal, a race memento, chip timing, and can experience finishline festival vibes. The minimum age to enter is 15 years old on the day of the run, and entries are limited.
Wallace Warriors 1 mile Fun Run This is a traffic-free, flat run for young participants. They experience the same start and finish line as the other festival events. Participants receive a finisher's medal, a race memento, snacks, and finishline festival vibes. There are no age restrictions for the 1 mile fun run; adults accompanying young children do not need to sign up, and entry for them is free. Older children can run ahead of their parents if a parent or guardian agrees and meets them at the finish. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
