Central AC are delighted to welcome you to the 23rd running of the Podfather Stirling 10k, now with two fun run events, a 2k for ages 5-9 year olds and a 3.5k for ages 10-14 year olds.
This years event will host the Scottish Athletics 10k Road Race Championships.
START TIMES:
2k and 3.5k fun runs- 9:20am
10k- 10:15am
THE EVENT:
Run on our traditional course, our super fast route offers fantastic views of Stirling Castle, Wallace Monument and the Ochil Hills. Each year we see a large number of finishers running their personal bests and that makes the race very attractive to runners from all over Scotland! Despite the super fast times recorded each year our race is not only for the speedy runners! It doesn’t matter if you run 30mins or 1h30mins, everyone is welcome and the last finisher will get just as big a cheer as the first finisher! Our aim is to give all runners the chance of doing their best time but enjoying it whilst they do so.
We had a fantastic event in 2023 where we introduced a whole range of new race day improvements for our runners, we received great feedback after the event, so we have brought them back again this year! Some features for 2024 include:
Pacers to 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60mins - easily identifiable by carrying a flag with target time.
A piper at the most scenic part of the course as you approach Wallace Monument.
Stirling University Cheerleading Squad suppporting our runners at 1.5k and 8.5k.
Music on the course.
FREE pre and post race massage at the start/finish area.
All entrants will be given the option of a race tshirt, or if you would prefer, thanks to us working with Trees not Tees, we can plant a tree in your name with certification, location and picture emailed to you.
Ladies fit T-shirt available (if opted for).
Clock at half-way for 5k split time.
Goody bag to all finishers
