This is a challenging cross country trail over the Barra Hill and we are looking to build on the success of this fantastic event. ** ENTRIES NOW OPEN ** Active Schools will again be organising junior races prior to the 10K. You can enter here: https://www.livelifeaberdeenshire.org.uk/features-folder/spa/active-schools-central-aberdeenshire-running-series/ We have been fortunate to have the support of many local businesses who are sponsoring this event. All monies raised from this 10K will go directly to the families in need of support. The 10K Route = 2K Road, 3K Cross Country, 5K Road. The start (and finish) is at Oldmeldrum Academy leading on to the fields at the foot of the Barra Hill. At this point, you will enter the cross country section of the course and the climb to the summit of Barra Hill is about 1km, from there you will enjoy panoramic views of Aberdeenshire. The route then takes you onto the Bourtie Road for a fast, downhill second half road section as you wind back into Oldmeldrum. This is a Scottish Athletics Licensed Event, and is open to age 16+. The entire route will be well sign posted and heavily marshalled.
