The Scottish Half Marathon and Scottish 10K events take place along the magnificent East Lothian Golf Coast before finishing in the final furlong at Musselburgh Racecourse to finish.
With events starting at different times, make sure you check the Key Times section, so you don't miss whoever it is you are supporting.
If you have any questions, we have developed an extensive FAQ section to help with event queries.
Visit our website to explore your transport options for the event.
If you are local to the area, you may be able to access spectator points along the route on foot. If you would like to do this, please plan this by consulting the Road Closures Document.
Please note: National Entitlement Cards cannot be used on Event Buses.
07:30 | Musselburgh Racecourse opens for runners and spectators.
09:00 | The Scottish 10K starts at Musselburgh Racecourse.
10:30 | Estimated time of last runner to finish the Scottish 10K
To make the most of your time spectating and supporting the runners, we recommend positioning yourself at the start and finish lines of the event. Given the relatively quick pace of the race, trying to reach the halfway point and return in time would be challenging.
Staying around Musselburgh allows you to enjoy the excitement at both the beginning and end of the race. Between these key moments, take the opportunity to relax and grab a cup of coffee from one of the local cafés - see the event facilities below for details.

You can reach Musselburgh Racecourse by public transport or by using the event parking at Musselburgh Racecourse. To park at the racecourse, you'll need to buy a ticket from the Scottish 10K shop.
The best place to watch your runner finish is in the grandstands of the Racecourse itself. The Racecourse is open from 07:30am.
Refreshments: Within Musselburgh Racecourse there will be a selection of catering trucks including Well Hung and Tender and the 1816 Cafe. They will be selling snacks and hot and cold drinks.
