Run on our traditional course, our super fast route offers fantastic views of Stirling Castle, the Wallace Monument and the Ochil Hills. Each year we see a large number of finishers running their personal bests and that makes the race very attractive to runners from all over Scotland! Despite the super fast times recorded each year, our race is not only for the speedy runners! It doesn’t matter if you run 30mins or 1h30mins, everyone is welcome and the last finisher will get just as big a cheer as the first finisher! Our aim is to give all runners the chance of doing their best time but enjoying it whilst they do so.

We had a fantastic event in 2024 with the race being sold out with a record entry. We offered a whole range of race day features for our runners and we received great feedback after the event, so we have brought them back again this year!

Some features for 2025 include:

Pacers to 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60mins - easily identifiable by carrying a flag with target time.
A piper at the most scenic part of the course as you approach Wallace Monument.
Cheerleading squad suppporting our runners at 1.5k and 8.5k.
Music on the course.
FREE pre and post race massage at the start/finish area.
All entrants will be given the option of a race tshirt, or if you would prefer, thanks to us working with Trees not Tees, we can plant a tree in your name with certification, location and picture emailed to you.
Ladies fit T-shirt option available
Race medals can be purchased for a small additional cost at sign up
Clock at half-way for 5k split time.
Goody bag to all finishers
Instructor-led warm up
Bouncy castles and face painting to keep kids entertained!
