Course Details
The race is 6 x 7km laps. The loop starts at Gypsy Brae Park and heads Westwards towards Cramond along the foreshore where you run around the ‘flagpole’ before turning back towards Granton. It is all tarmac and is a flat course with very few obstacles, such as trees, to manoeuvre. It will start and finish at the same area.
Please follow all instructions from our race marshals as they are there to ensure your safety.
FAQs
-
Where are the water stops?
There will be a water and fuel station at 7km, 14km, 21km, 28km and 35km.
-
When is the race briefing?
There will be a race safety brief given to all runners 5 minutes before the event to go over any safety issues and give the opportunity for runners to ask any questions.
-
Is there a bag drop?
Unsecured baggage storage will be available at the Blast Running Gazebo. The race organisers take no responsibility for any items stored before, during or after the race.

Age restrictions
For the full marathon, participants should be 18 or above. Solo children aged between 10 -17 can run by themselves as part of a team but please note that they are not the responsibility of the race organiser, neither on the course or at the start/finish area. There will be friendly marshals on the course whom they can ask for any assistance plus a designated meeting point arranged by the organisers (the registration gazebo) but Blast Running cannot be held responsible for the safety of your child whilst you are not with them, either on the course or at the start/finish area.
