The Edinburgh to North Berwick race

The race began in 1958, and was held almost every year until 2017. It was revived in 2022.

This race offers an excellent chance of a good time, being a mostly flat course on hard surface,,, a good trial for any upcoming marathon.

The distance has been professionally measured in recent years as being exactly 20 miles.

Plenty drinks and good food at the finish.

Lots of prizes and spot-prizes.
