Running Events in Aberdeen

The Stena Drilling 10K takes you through some beautiful Highland scenery on the Balmoral Estate and will be clearly marked and well marshalled.

Let the incredible atmosphere on the Union Street start line carry you around the 10k or half marathon course. Go from the city to sea and experience the best Aberdeen has to offer from a different perspective. And if you're quick, you can take advantage of our early bird offer available to the first 500 entrants into each distance.

The Tom's Cairn 10K Trail Race was first organised in 2016 by members of the Parent Council for Finzean School and Ballogie Nursery.

The 10K starts and finishes at Birse and Feughside Church (with the kind agreement of the congregation and Minister) where there is access to parking, registration space and toilets. The 5K starts at the Church, down the hill and onto the Estate tracks into the woods. After deviating from the 10K route the 5K runners pass the small settlement of Turfgate and onto a small undulating path with glimpses of the hills through the trees.
