Half Marathon Running Events in Edinburgh 2026–2027

Up and Running Events is proud to return to Edinburgh, bringing our high-energy atmosphere and smooth organisation to the iconic setting of Holyrood Park. Join us for an unforgettable 5K, 10K & Half Marathon in the fall in one of Scotland’s most spectacular running locations. Set against the dramatic backdrop of Arthur’s Seat, these routes offer a perfect blend of challenge, scenery and motivation. Whether you're chasing a PB, building early-season fitness, or taking on your first-ever race, you’ll be welcomed with the supportive, community-driven spirit that defines every Up and Running event. Expect clear signage, friendly marshals, chip timing, and a finish-line experience that celebrates every runner. You'll earn a well-deserved medal, and—true to our mission—we’ll send you into the year ahead feeling inspired, energised, and part of something special.
