Half Marathon preteky v blízkosti Leuchars

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.

Začína v Tayporte, Fife, s trasami, ktoré vedú do lesa Tentsmuir medzi Dundee a St Andrews. Organizuje to Scurry Events, konkrétne Peter Ness. Na výber je polmaratón, 10K, 5K a rodinný beh na 1,2 km. Nie je to klasický silničný beh, ale mix terénov – lesné cesty, lesné chodníky, pobrežné chodníky, piesočné duny a otvorené pobrežie okolo Tentsmuiru. Dlhšie distancie sú na jednu koleso, takže polmaratón, 10K a 5K nedávajú ten istý krátky okruh. Trasy sú označené a dohliadajú na ne, vedú lesom, po brehu a po pobreží. Vhodné pre začínajúcich aj pre tie, ktorí chcú niečo náročnejšie. Festival podopiera aj Tayport Community Trust a Larick Centre, takže nie je iba o behu.
