Recurring 10K races near Dundee
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Run Scotland Rannoch 10k, Half Marathon & Marathon
Loch Kinord 10K
The Loch Kinord 10K is a trail race encircling Loch Kinord. It begins and concludes at Kinord Hall in Dinnet, Aberdeenshire, situated on the A93 between Aboyne and Ballater. The race takes place within the Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve, offering participants a largely flat, swift 10 km course. This makes it suitable for those aiming for a fast trail time and for runners new to off-road racing.
The route incorporates forest tracks, narrow paths, grassy areas, and nature reserve trails, featuring vistas over the loch and through the adjacent woods. The terrain is firm and generally runnable, though rain can lead to muddy or slick conditions in places. Trail shoes are recommended, and hazard tape will mark difficult sections if necessary. Marshals will be stationed along the course, and participants should carry clothing appropriate for variable Highland weather, with full body cover available pre-race.
Glamis Castle Glow Run
The Glamis Castle Glow Run offers a 5K or 10K night race at Glamis Castle, near Forfar. Both distances commence at 7pm from the castle's front. The course follows a lit trail within the castle grounds, allowing participants to view the estate after dark, differing from a typical daytime race.
This event is suitable for trail runners, joggers, novices, and seasoned participants. The 5K is open to individuals aged 12 and up, while the 10K is for those 17 and older. The route circles the grounds, concluding back at the castle, integrating the building into both the start and finish.
Perth Running Festival
The Perth Running Festival begins and ends at Perth Racecourse in Perth, Scotland, with the Half Marathon start located before the grandstand. This road running event offers three distances: a Half Marathon, a 7.5km race, and a 1 mile fun run, also known by the racecourse-style name “8 Furlong.” The Half Marathon course is flat and fast, suitable for runners aiming for a personal best or those new to the distance.
The route traces the River Tay, goes by Scone Palace, and incorporates North Inch parkland before crossing parts of the city. Most of the course utilizes traffic-free park paths, riverside stretches, and paths around the racecourse, blending open green areas with urban running. The shorter races remain near the racecourse and adjacent paths, whereas the Half Marathon extends further along the river and through the adjacent parkland. Scone Palace provides the event's primary historical connection, linked to the Stone of Destiny and the coronations of Scottish monarchs.
Auchterarder 10K Chilli Trail Race
The Auchterarder 10K Chilli Trail Race follows the outline of a chilli pepper on the map. This 10 km trail and country-road race is based in Auchterarder, Scotland. It begins at Community School Auchterarder and proceeds towards the Ochil Hills. Runners, joggers, and walkers can participate; there is no cutoff time. The race has a Halloween theme upon its return.
The route consists of approximately 5.6 km of trail, 3.4 km of country road, and 1 km of dirt road, distinguishing it from a flat road 10K. It ascends 245 m, peaking at 233 m. The course features forest tracks, consistent uphill stretches, quick descents, and two stream crossings. Marshals are stationed along the course for safety. The route is shared with participants before race day and published on Facebook. Five Star Events is the organiser, with Fiona Watt serving as race director.
Scurry Around Tentsmuir Forest Trail Running Festival
The Scurry Around Tentsmuir Forest Trail Running Festival begins in Tayport, Fife, with routes extending into Tentsmuir Forest, situated between Dundee and St Andrews. Scurry Events organizes the festival, with Peter Ness as the listed organiser. The race options include a half marathon, 10K, 5K, and a 1.2K family run. This is a mixed-terrain trail event, not a road race, and the start area is connected to the Larick Centre.
The longer races feature distinct one-lap courses; the half marathon, 10K, and 5K runners will not repeat the same short loop. The routes, which are marked and marshalled, traverse forest trails, woodland tracks, coastal paths, sand dunes, and open coastal stretches around Tentsmuir. This setup accommodates various runners, from those new to trail running to individuals seeking a more extensive forest and coastal challenge. The festival also provides support to the Tayport Community Trust and Larick Centre, establishing a local community connection beyond the races.
Holyrood Park 5k/10k/Half Marathon
The Holyrood Park MoRun begins at 9:30 AM in Edinburgh’s Holyrood Park. Runners will assemble near Queen’s Drive for this November charity event. Adult participants can select a 5k, 10k, or half marathon, while children can compete in a chip-timed 1.5k Mini MoRun.
The courses wind through Holyrood Park, centering the event in one of Edinburgh’s most distinctive natural areas instead of a typical city-centre route. This event is part of the MoRunning series and benefits Movember, an organization that raises funds and awareness for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention. The event is designed for everyday runners, families, friends, and children. Fundraising pages or donations can be made during registration, and MoRunning t-shirts and vests are available for those wishing to embrace the Movember aesthetic.
Holyrood Park 5k/10k/Half Marathon - November 2026
MoRun d'Édimbourg 1,5k, 5k, 10k et semi-marathon
MoRun Edinburgh takes place in late November in Edinburgh, Scotland, offering four distances: 1.5 km, 5 km, 10 km, and a half marathon (21.0975 km). As part of the MoRun series, its flexible format allows participants to select a distance suited to their preferences, rather than a single mandatory race.
The 10 km is the most frequently chosen distance, with the 1.5 km option providing a shorter route for families and novice runners. The event welcomes beginners, seasoned runners, couples, and families. The Edinburgh location allows participants to explore city sights and heritage along the road courses.
Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill 10km and 5km Trail Runs
The Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill Trail Runs begin and end at Hermitage of Braid House in Edinburgh, offering 10km, 5km, and 1.2km distances. The primary races are single-lap, mixed-terrain trail runs crossing the Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill nature reserve. Both the 10km and 5km courses ascend Blackford Hill.
Runners gain open views across Edinburgh and the Forth from the higher elevations. The shorter Festive Fun Run follows the main drive to Hermitage House and returns. Participants in the fun run receive elf hats, and festive attire is encouraged. Proceeds benefit South Morningside Primary School and Friends of the Hermitage. Finishers are provided with refreshments and a memento following marked, marshaled routes.
The 1.5k, 5k, 10k and Half Marathon Edinburgh MoRun
The Edinburgh MoRun takes place in Holyrood Park during November, offering 1.5k, 5k, 10k, and half marathon distances. All races commence and conclude on Queens Drive. This event is integrated into the MoRunning series, which supports Movember. Consequently, the day emphasizes men's health fundraising alongside race completion. The designated causes are prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention, all linked to the event's moustache motif.
The Mini MoRun provides a chip-timed 1.5k for children. Adults can select from a 5k run up to a half marathon. Participants receive a MoRunning medal and headband. Additional awards are presented to the fastest MoBro and MoSista, alongside spot prizes for the best costumes and moustaches. The event accommodates families, novices, club athletes, charity participants, and children. Donations to Movember can be made during the registration process.
Edinburgh Christmas Running Festival 5K & 10K
The Edinburgh Christmas Running Festival takes place in Inverleith Park, Edinburgh, offering 5K, 10K, and Junior 1.5K races. The 5K begins in the morning, followed by the 10K, and the under-16 junior race provides a shorter option for younger participants. The event is designed for a wide range of runners, with all participants receiving chip timing.
All activities are centered at the Inverleith Park start area, where runners can pick up their race numbers and timing chips on the day. The event is managed by Terry Crossley, awards every finisher a unique medal, and is a recurring fixture for many as an early indicator of the Christmas running season in Edinburgh.

Dundee Training Notes
Dundee hosts 32 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Locals get plenty done from the city centre, because Dundee gives you the Firth of Tay, Dundee Law, Balgay Hill, and Camperdown Park without much fuss. You can knock out 6 miles short or 6 miles medium. Sweatshop Running Community meets at David Lloyd in Monifieth on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday. Hawkhill Harriers have an intermediate group at the RPC in Caird Park on Wednesday evenings. Camperdown Parkrun gives Saturday legs a proper test, because locals know it is not your average 5k. DRAM, HALF DRAM, Dundee 10K, and White Tops Hill Race anchor the calendar.
Locals ride out with Dundee Thistle Cycling Club and Dundee Wheelers Cycling Club, depending on the day and the mood. Dundee Thistle runs often leave from the lift area under the Tay Road Bridge, Invergowrie, or Camperdown Gates, and Sunday runs at 9.30 usually cover 60 to 80 miles with a cafe stop. Dundee Wheelers leave Millennium Hall on Thursdays at 9:15 am, and their Saturday Challenge Rides start at 8 am and build from about 50 to 140 miles. The climbs sit in the line of hills through the city, then north into the Sidlaw Hills where Craigowl Hill reaches 455 m.
Spring and summer suit base miles, Z2 rides, intervals, parkrun, and longer loops, because the days open up and the daily maxima nudge higher. Daily maxima nudge 13°C, so locals can train hard without chasing shade all day. Summer gives Dundee Thistle its more competitive Thursday night APR session, and runners get more evening room around Camperdown Park, Balgay Park, Perth Road, and Riverside Drive. Winter stays mild, but air frost changes the feel, so locals keep the work steady, choose grip carefully, and save the sharper crit, gran fondo, and cyclocross energy for better days.
