Each year we will run one third of the Kintyre Way, either Tayinloan to Tarbert, Tayinloan to Campbeltown or Machrihanish to Campbeltown. In 2025, we will run from Machrihanish to Campbeltown. The date for the 2025 race is Saturday 10th may. Details of the route will be available here.
Starting at 8.30 a.m. from Machrihanish Village Hall, there will be one checkpoint at Southend, with additional water points in between. We will take a drop-bag to Southend for you as well as a bag for the Finish at the Glengyle Distillery in Campbeltown. From Southend to Campbeltown the route is mainly on tarmac so if you wish to change shoes at Southend we will bring your trail shoes back to the finish. Please note that this can only be done once the checkpoint closes, which may be too late for anyone attempting a quick getaway.
In addition to electronic timing by KiTST each runner will carry a GPS tracker.
Entries open on 1st January.
We will provide a bus from Campbeltown to Machrihanish in addition to the service bus.
Please also mention dietary requirements for the refreshments (soup, burger, pastry and tea) at the end.
If you have previously completed Tayinloan to Campbeltown and Tayinloan to Tarbert and would like to purchase a frame for your set of 3 coasters at the subsidised cost of £10, please add this to your order as well.
Closing date for entries is 20th April.
Price to be confirmed.
Within the courtyard at the Finish there will be free massage, food and drop bags. Your fan club can enjoy children’s entertainment while they are waiting and the prizegiving will be held here at 5 p.m.
Please also note, details may be added and updated up until entries open.
