Barclays Hampden Running Festival is organised by Up and Running Events and gives runners the opportunity to race at Scotland's National Stadium.
The programme includes 5K and 10K races, with a fast, spectator-friendly course around the grounds of Hampden Park before runners enter the stadium for a memorable finish inside the famous arena. Two separate 5K races are scheduled during the day, alongside the 10K.
The festival also includes children's races, creating a family-focused day of running with an event village and spectators able to support from the stadium. Younger runners can choose from age-appropriate distances before experiencing their own Hampden finish. All races are chip timed, with finishers receiving a medal and race-day goodies.
