Have a look at a few of the special moments from the 2017 Bank of Scotland Great Scottish Run, which welcomed over 30,000 people to the start line who were taking part for a number of reasons that included raising money for charity, reaching personal fitness goals and enjoying a day out with family and friends.

The Bank of Scotland Great Scottish Run half marathon welcomes thousands of runners to the city of Glasgow every year. The course starts in the centre of the city, in George Square, and from there takes runners past a selection of Glasgows finest venues and buildings. As well as crossing over the River Clyde, runners will take a trip through Pollok Park and Bellahouston Park, before heading back for the grandstand finish on Glasgow Green.

This friendly, club organised half marathon is open to runners aged 18 years and over and will be held on roads in and around Kirkintilloch. The route includes Milton of Campsie, Lennoxtown, and Torrance and Lenzie. The course is challenging with some undulations but also has recorded some very fast times and allowed many runners to set personal best times.

The event is held on public roads and with the support of Police Scotland and East Dunbartonshrie Council enables the runners to be able to run safely through the scenic countryside and towns of the area.

Please note that runners should aim to complete the course in under 2.5 hours; marshals may be withdrawn after that time.

The race starts a 9 am on Sunday 7 October with registration at Kirkintilloch Leisure Centre close to the town centre. Changing facilities are available from 7.30am.

Our annual 10K race will be returning to the University of Stirling in 2018 with a brand new multi terrain route - taking in paths, roads and cross country, this truly is a challenge to suit runners of all abilities! Our 2.5K Family Fun Run is open to all ages and really is all about the fun - in 2017 we were joined by a couple of Ninja Turtles as well as whole families of runners enjoying the experience together!

This fantastic 5K route is a great opportunity to explore the home of two 30-metre high horses! The Kelpies are mythical creatures who love to play at dusk, each one weighs over 300 tonnes. Come and immerse yourself in a light journey with them.

MoRunning is back this November and without a doubt, it will be an epic year to be a MoRunner. With an incredible 22 locations and the inclusion of the 1.5km mini MoRun we expect to see loads more MoBro's and MoSista's, as well as kids and families enjoying everything MoRunning is about! Good fun, lots of laughs, loads of smiles, high fives and not forgetting the fancy dress and funny moustaches!

Make sure you secure your entry for you, your friends and your family as soon as possible as places are limited and we don't want you to miss out.

Take on the ultimate 26.2-mile distance or set yourself the challenge of the half marathon through stunning scenery past castles, beautiful countryside and historic towns in the beating heart of Scotland.
