Loch Ness Marathon
This monster race returns on Sunday 30 Septemebr 2012. The Baxters Loch Ness Marathon and Festival of Running is a notable fixture on the running calendar. There are great marathons around the world, many of them particularly marked by their settings, and Loch Ness ranks right alongside them.
The centuries-old legend of the Loch Ness Monster is a story which continues to run. Along with the scenic beauty of the area, it has been responsible for attracting visitors to this fascinating part of Scotland for many years.
The opportunity to put such a memorable marathon on their record, one with such a unique story to tell, has proven too strong a pull for thousands of runners of all abilities.
Runners at the Baxters Loch Ness Marathon are taking on the challenge for many reasons: to raise money for good causes, to have fun and enjoy the fantastic setting, to experience the camaraderie, and to achieve their own personal goals.
We invite you to join us on the start line, one which will begin your run through wonderful scenery, take you along the south-eastern shores of Loch Ness, across the River Ness, and into the centre of Inverness, capital city of the Highlands. It’s your chance to become part of the Loch Ness running legend.
