Running Events

Marathon Running

Taking part in a marathon is a great way to raise money for charity.  It's hard work but the reward is worth it when you raise lots of money for a fantastic cause and there are many to choose from these days with varying distances to suit your fitness. 

We have places in the Edinburgh Marathon for 2012.  If a full marathon sounds too much then you could always try the Scottish Half Marathon or the Hairy Haggis Team Relay.  The Scottish Half Marathon starts at 8am so you set off before the full marathon runners but get to experience the big race excitement.  You can find out more on the Edinburgh Marathon website and become part of the fastest marathon in the UK.

 

The Edinburgh Marathon

 Join over 19,000 runners in the 2012 Edinburgh Marathon and Hairy Haggis Team Relay.   If you're new to marathon running, the relay is a great way to start.   Or why not try the Scottish Half Marathon taking place on the same day but with an earlier start.  Experience the big race excitement of the Edinburgh Marathon with the same grandstand finish.   You could be part of one of the biggest running festivals in the UK.

There are two ways you can run for PiggyBankKids:

Contact us for a guaranteed place.  We will require you to raise a minimum sponsorship amount so that we cover our costs. We still have places available for the full marathon, half marathon and the team relay so please contact us now or register your interest on the Edinburgh Marathon website so that we can guarantee you a place.

Or if you have already entered the race yourself, you can still raise money for PiggyBankKids and we will do all we can to help you raise as much money as possible.
 

New in 2012

Would you like to run a Kilomathon?  Another great way to build up to the full marathon.  Contact us now to guarantee a place.

Kilomathon England 2012

We don't have guaranteed places in any other running events, but if you are fortunate enough to gain a place yourself then we will help you the best we can to fundraise as much money as possible for PiggyBankKids.
