Kyles 10 Miles Run/Walk
The Kyles 10 Miles is an unrivalled scenic road race/walk on Argyll's Secret Coast. The circular route heads out from the village of Tighnabruaich around the beautiful Ardlamont peninsula with stunning views of the Mull of Kintyre and Arran. The first five miles are hilly and challenging, flattening out for the second half of the run which takes you along the coastal road to Kames. Places are limited so book early to avoid any disappointment.
The run is Scottish Athletics Affiliated (the walk is just for fun). We are again delighted to be sponsored by Radisson RED Glasgow and the Kames Hotel.
All entrants will receive a medal and a wicking t-shirt. There will also be monetary prizes and trophies for the run winners. There will be chip timing for the runners.
The race number for the runners will be posted to you before the race and you do not need to register on the day. If you have any questions please go to the start line. There are toilets here. The run will start on the main road in front of the Royal An Lochan at 12 noon - a ten-minute walk from the Kames Hall (the walk starts at 11am from the hall), and finishes in front of the Kames Hotel where there will be refreshments and a BBQ.
Please note there are very limited toilets at the start - there are public toilets in Tighnabruaich or Kames.
