This is a very unusual race.

A 5 mile race to a set of rocks in the middle of the Firth of Forth and back again. The route starts in the small town of Kinghorn with changing and bag drop in the local school and library. Initially running through streets you soon hit the beach an run out over sand to a set of rocks in the middle of Pettycur Bay. Although the race is timed for the tides being out you will get your feet wet. After looping the rocks you run back to town finishing on a monster hill in the centre. This has become a fixture in the town of Kinghorn and many locals will come out to cheer.

There are no medals but you finish with a cracking local beer! T shirts (cotton) can also be bought for about £10.

The date of this race changes slightly each year as it always on a Friday but has to be timed for a day when the tides are suitable. It is always in late May/early June and sells out fast! Entry via entry central.

As you will get wet make sure and bring an older pair of shoes and a change.

This is a fantastic and fun race set in wonderful natural surroundings - the image of runners coming over the sands in the summer evening is iconic and will be one you won't forget.

A unique race - I would have no hesitation in adding this to your bucket list.
