The Bothwell Scarecrow Festival invites you to enter the Bothwell Run Fest 5K & 10K road race, which will be held on Sunday 4th September 2022 at 10.00am.

There may be limited places available to register on the day of the event (Sunday 4th Sept) at Bothwell Primary School, however to avoid any disappointment we recommend signing up online. Registration is open from 8:30am until 9:30am.

This year our 10 and 5K Races are on Sunday of the weekend prior to the main Festival weekend and will be one of the first opportunities for you to get involved in the festival. The route will take you along some of the paths and roads in and around Bothwell.

We have two options for you, both starting and finishing at Bothwell Primary School. The more serious runners amongst you have the option of a 10K race (2 laps) while the rest of you can take a more leisurely approach in a once round 5K run, trot or walk – which ever suits you. As the 5k is to be a fun event get dressed-up (we have prizes for the best dressed competitors – scarecrows or any other theme of your choice) and make it an enjoyable day for everyone.

To enter either race please use the online registration form on Entry Central Online Registration. Once registered we will acknowledge your entry and further information will be sent out in a separate email in the weeks leading up to the event.

Your number will be available to pick up at Bothwell Primary school from 8:30am on the morning of the race, this will need attaching to the front of your T-Shirt or vest. This year the races will be chipped timed, this service will be provided by Perfect Timing.

All children must be of school age or above to take part. All children under the age of 16 entering either race must either be accompanied by a parent or guardian or have permission to take part in either race. Minimum entry ages are 14 for the 10K and 5 for the 5K.

There will be a warm up prior to the start.
