The Kayleigh's Wee Stars Barra 10 is back and will be held on Saturday the 27th May 2023. This is a popular and challenging multi terrain trail over the Barra Hill with spectacular views across the North East countryside. The atmosphere is welcoming and fun and has something for everyone. It's family friendly too with junior races taking place before the main event. Don't miss out, this is definitely one to include in your 2022 calendar. ** ENTRIES NOW OPEN ** Active Schools will be organising junior races prior to the main 10K. You can enter/register your child for the race using a link that we'll provide here soon. Active Schools will contact you 3 weeks prior to the race to confirm your entry and the joining details. 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. The climb to the summit of Barra Hill is about 1km, where you will enjoy panoramic views of Aberdeenshire.
