Join the My Name’5 Doddie Charity Race at Gypsy Brae Recreation Ground and the Silverknowes Promenade for a friendly, inclusive running event supporting two great causes.
With wide, flat tarmac paths, it’s ideal for all abilities - from little legs to seasoned runners. Choose a 5K or 10K, or bring the kids along for the 1K Fun Run.
Every finisher receives a medal, with snacks, drinks and a relaxed post-race atmosphere to enjoy, plus the chance for a selfie with Scott Hastings, a former Scottish Rugby player.
Run, jog or walk - and help us beat last year’s fundraising total.
