Route information

Terrain: Paths & Trail Elevation: Flat
This is a lapped course around the beautiful, 55-hectare Glasgow Green, Glasgow's oldest park. The 5k runners will finish their race in one lap and the 10k runners in two, making this a fast and easy-to-follow route. Half marathon participants will complete 4 laps of the course, with an additional 1.1k section.
Starting at the monument of Nelson's Column, the course weaves through an impressive green space, passing many iconic sites. There will be marshals stationed throughout the course to direct runners in the right direction.
This race aims to raise money for Shelter, whose mission is to help solve the current housing epidemic across the country.
