Entries are now open for the second Cove & Kilcreggan 10k – and organisers have a fund-raising event planned soon.
The first walk and run in 2023 was a great success, and this year there will also be a fun run for children.
But first the organising team aim to cover costs including road closures with another family ceilidh fundraising event.
The ever-popular Crowded Croft will be playing in Cove Burgh Hall on Friday March 1 and tickets are £15 for people aged 16 or over and £5 for children – email joycebraaksma@gmail.com to book your place.
The big event itself will be on Sunday June 9, adn as well as the 10K runa dn walk there will be a 1.3lm fun run for youngsters.
Last year’s varied and challenging route will be used again, starting and finishing at Cove Burgh Hall, where there will be registration, toilet facilities and bag drop.
The route is mixed terrain, starting on the flat along road and pavement then turning up onto a forestry track which is undulating dirt track with lovely scenery.
The forestry track will be a little challenging as it has a slow incline but after the 5km point then it’s a satisfying downhill run on the track then pavement all the way back to the hall.
The run is for 16 year-olds and upwards and the walk is for eight year-olds and above.
Under-12s need to be accompanied by a paying adult.
Entry for the run is £22.50 for an adult or £20.50 for Scottish Athletic Members and the walk is also £22.50 for adults or £5 for children who are up for the challenge.
