To keep our University community motivated this winter, staff and students across the University are being offered the opportunity to lace up their trainers, dig out their bobble hat, and come together for a run around our city’s most iconic landmark, Arthur’s Seat.
Event details
The event is open to all abilities, from complete beginners looking to tick off their first running event, to avid runners hoping to achieve a personal best. Runners and walkers have three races to choose from:
- 5k
- 10k
- Half marathon
Sign up with your friends, family or colleagues. We would love to see you there on the day, even if it is to walk the route or to cheer on others. Colleagues from subsidiary companies are also welcome to sign up.
