Dunblane 12K Road Race

Hello,

Please can you bring to the attention of your club members that the Dunblane Road Race is open for entries on entry central – Dunblane 12km Road Race & 2km Youth Race

We are delighted to be launching a new start and finish line of the 2017 race which is now in the heart of Dunblane High Street. Enjoy the incredible all-encompassing route of the 12km course taking runners past some of Dunblane’s most iconic landmarks including the golden post box, stunning backdrop of the DoubleTree Dunblane Hydro, through the beautiful village of Kinbuck, past Andy Murray’s exclusive Cromlix House Hotel as well as the picturesque views along the Auchenlay road.
The day kicks off at 12pm for the kids 2km race followed by the adults 12km race beginning at 1pm.
It would be great to see this supported by the many running clubs in the central region and also those further away.
Thanks in advance,
Dunblane Runners.
