Route information
The North Inch course follows a flat and fast 2.5km loop through the heart of the park and alongside the River Tay.
With level paths, long open sections and very little elevation, the course is perfect for settling into a rhythm and offers plenty of potential for runners looking to chase a personal best.
The multi-lap format also makes North Inch a great location for spectators, with runners regularly passing through the main event area and plenty of opportunities for support around the course.
The route will be fully marked with kilometre markers, directional arrows and friendly marshals throughout.
