This half marathon is a perfect way to test your training and pace ahead of the big day. Named ‘Innocent’ as it is fundraising for 3 children’s charities – Richmond’s Hope, Kidney Kids Scotland and Firefly International.
Richmond’s Hope provides support for children and young people aged 4-18 years who have been bereaved. Kidney Kids Scotland was founded to help children with renal illness and their families. Firefly International is a very small Edinburgh based charity that supports children affected by war.
The run route is on a mixture of car free roads within the grounds of Dalmeny Estate and some cycle pathways between South Queensferry and Burnshot. It is 85% tarmac and 15% very runable track. It starts and finishes in South Queensferry. There is no escaping some climb in this neck of the woods so please note that there is approx 275m of ascent - but what goes up must come down again!
