About this Event

Join Team JDRF and fundraise for us at the Edinburgh Marathon Running Festival 2025 by taking on either the marathon, half marathon, team relay, 10K, 5K or any of the junior runs.

Sign up to Team JDRF and we will support you with:

  • JDRF running vest
  • Fundraising pack with lots of hints and tips to maximise your fundraising
  • Regular contact with JDRF staff to help and encourage you in the lead up to the event
  • Welcome from JDRF staff and volunteers at the marathon & half marathon finish area to celebrate your achievement!

Whether this is your first 5k or you are an experienced marathon runner, we hope that you can raise lots of money for us so we can continue funding life-changing type 1 diabetes research and supporting people living with type 1.
