EDINBURGH MARATHON

Starting on Potterrow in the grounds of one of the oldest Universities in the world, this incrediblecity center start takes you through the very heart of Edinburgh. As you pass Greyfriars Bobby on your left, you also take in the National Museum of Scotland on your right, before heading over the High Street and down The Mound. Don’t be surprised if you see a few shoppers stop and cheer as you then run past the Scottish National Gallery and into Princes Street Gardens, with the iconic Edinburgh Castle as your backdrop.

The route then takes in the ‘Gothic Rocket’, otherwise known as the Scott Monument, as it meanders down the historic Royal Mile, heading towards and past the somewhat controversial Scottish Parliament building. Here you can look up and take in the spectacular Arthurs Seat & Salisbury Crags, as well as the Palace of Holyrood, before departing the Royal Park and heading east towards the coast.

As you reach Musselburgh, you’ll run past the oldest golf course in the world, where it’s documented that golf has been played as early as 1672, before heading further East on the flat to Gosford House, an imposing neo-classical mansion which was one of the last great architectural commissions of the celebrated Scots architect, Robert Adam. As you turn and head back along the coast, you’ll see the beautiful finish line ahead, one of the greatest sights for any marathon runner!

With a descent of almost 90meters to near sea level, we believe that this is the fastest marathon route in the world.


Transylvania 100K

Brasov, Transilvania, Romania
Distance: 100k · Ultra
Offical Race Web Site

*Official UTMB qualifier, 5 points for 100k, 3 points for 50k and 1 point for 30k

100k, 80K & 50k ULTRARUNS, 30k SKYRUN & 20K TRAIL RUN along the spectacular high-level trails of Transylvania, one of the most beautiful and mysterious regions of eastern Europe.

The Transylvania100 races will traverse mountain single track, forest trails, epic ridge-lines and a total of 6,400+meters of ascent and descent (3,200 +/- in the 50k and 2,300 +/- in the 30k) in single-loop, single-stage events open to solos and teams-of-two.

As organizers, we've been running and hiking in Transylvania for many years, and have drawn on our wide experience of ultra-racing (including the MdS, UTMB, Grand Raid Reunion, Yukon Arctic Ultra and Atacama Crossing) to create what we believe is one of the best mountain-ultra events in Europe.
