Before the light nights of springtime return, take on the thrill of a night-time race and revel in the uniqueness of racing in the dark. North Lanarkshire Leisure's Nite Lite Run Dark returns on 22 March and is the ideal way to mark the end of the winter running season.

The popular evening race attracts runners of all ability levels. The route itself provides runners with a fantastic experience combining both road and trail elements around the picturesque setting of Drumpellier Country Park. The course starts at Lochend Loch within the park and runs past the Crannog and along the woodland trail incorporating parts of the North Calder trail.

The route will be well highlighted with runner guides circulated to all participants together with runner head torches supplied as part of the overall race fee of £15.
