About this Event
London Kilt Run 10k
Join us for a social 10k run around central London with a Scottish theme!
Hosted by the Kilted Personal Trainer!
St Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland and St Andrew's Day is the official National Day of Scotland.
Based on the sell out success of the Robert Burns Scottish themed run as featured in Time Out Magazine, Londonist, and Asian Wealth Magazine we are returning again for another pop up event taking in as many of the Scottish themed sights in and around the capital!
Kilts not necessary but any efforts at sourcing tartan appreciated and there will be a prize for the best interpretation of 'Scottish theme.'
Please note this event sold out previously and has a restricted capacity and so early entries are advised!

Frequently Asked Questions:
1/What is the route?
The route starts and finishes at the Robert Burns statue in Victoria Embankment Gardens and follows a route up to Lambeth Bridge and down to Tower Bridge before returning. There are approx five stops en route to allow slower runners to catch up and faster runners to catch their breath during which time the Scottish theme will be developed (famous landmarks and people of Scottish extraction).
