Whatever you're going through, a Samaritan will face it with you. We're here 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The route is seriously flat and rapid - if you want to set a personal best for a half marathon, then this is the event for you. Starting conveniently at 11am just outside Edinburgh, you will run along the magnificent East Lothian Golf Coast before finishing in the final furlong at Musselburgh Racecourse; Scotland's oldest racecourse.
How we'll suport you;
- Regular email updates and support from the Samaritans Events Team
- Receive awareness-raising and fundraising materials
- Your own personalised running vest/t-shirt to wear with pride on the day
- Supporter t-shirts and cheering materials
Why Samaritans need your support;
We know that life can sometimes be incredibly tough. Thanks to the dedication of more than 20,000 volunteers, Samaritans can be there for anyone, whatever they are going through and whenever they are struggling to cope. We’re also at the heart of local communities, working with schools, workplaces, railways, prisons and hospitals to offer training and support, preventing suicide and helping people turn their lives around.
Our life-saving work wouldn’t be possible without the extraordinary generosity of our event participants.
