There will be lots of entertainment for non runners before, during and after the races! Farmer’s village market in the marquee including refreshments, entertainment and much more.

Great wee Race! Milnathort 5miler this Thursday 7.30pm

The Milnathort Dash is our annual race for those that love hills but prefer not to be offroad. Its only 5.4 miles but the views are well worth the effort. The fastest last year went round in 29 min and the slowest in 55, so there is scope for all standards of runers. We had over 180 competitors last year so the competition was good, they didn’t all come for our legendary post race refreshments.

Milnathort is right next to Kinross and is easily accessible from all over central Scotland. M90 Jct 6 Northbound or M90 Jct 7 Southbound.

Details can be found on our website

www.kinrossroadrunners.co.uk

The race route can be seen here:

http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2851497

Entry forms are available on the day at registration. Registration is clearly signposted in the middle of Milnathort.

Registration opens at 6.00pm and the race starts at 7.30pm. Prize Giving is anticipated at 9.00pm or earlier.

There are cash prizes and age group prizes all the way up to over 70′s (male and female) and spot prizes for lots of others.

Naturally, there are King and Queen prizes for the first to the top of the initial climb.

Entry is £5 (£2 extra if you are not SA registered)
