Kayleigh's Wee Stars Turkey Trot is a festive 7.8K charity run starting at the Royal British Legion in Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire. The event takes runners through the surrounding countryside, bringing together local runners and supporters for a Christmas themed afternoon in aid of Kayleigh's Wee Stars.
The route follows quiet country roads through the rural landscape around Oldmeldrum, with rolling hills and open views across the Aberdeenshire countryside. Runners follow an out and back course, meeting festive supporters at the halfway turnaround point before returning to the village.
Festive fancy dress is encouraged, with participants receiving a bespoke Christmas decoration on finishing. Refreshments are available at the Legion afterwards, providing a chance for runners and their families to gather. Proceeds support Kayleigh's Wee Stars, a Scottish charity helping families with terminally ill children.
