take on the ultimate running experience combining fast, flat routes with stunning views of East Lothian's Golf Coast! 


The Scottish Half Marathon route is seriously flat & rapid - if you want to set a personal best for a half marathon, then this is the event for you. Starting just outside Edinburgh, you run along the magnificent East Lothian Golf Coast before finishing in the final furlong at Musselburgh Racecourse, Scotland’s oldest racecourse. 

It doesn’t matter if this is your first, or your hundredth running event, this is one not to be missed! It's fresh and its exciting - give it a go and set your 2023 challenge today! Whatever your finish time, you’ll be a champion to children all across Scotland who need your help.

Sign up today for a FREE charity place and pledge to raise a minimum of £285 in sponsorship for Children 1st! 
 
When you take on the Scottish Half Marathon for Children 1st we will provide you with: 

  • A welcome pack with sponsor forms and helpful information to kick start your fundraising
  • A Children 1st top to wear proudly on the day of your race
  • Dedicated support from a member of our fundraising team to help you every step of the way
