About the 10k event

The 10k is just over 6 miles and perfect for those looking for more of a challenge. Take on a longer distance without pressure! If you enjoy walking or running and have taken part in charity runs before, then a 10k could be the one for you. Take it at your own pace, in a group, or go solo and push yourself a bit further while helping to fund our life-saving cancer research.

Course information

The Dundee course is a double lap situated within Camperdown Park, which is the largest public park in Dundee. The route allows you to take in the beautiful sights of the park including the stunning neo-classical Camperdown House, before heading into the forest area. The terrain of the course is a mix of grass, roads and woodland paths, with a couple of small inclines.

Please remember to bring your own water bottle already filled as there will be no bottled water provided at events. There will be a water refill station 1/2 around the course and a ScottishPower water refill station will be available to use at the finish. 

Please arrive 30 to 45 mins before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.

Our courses have been measured with a measuring wheel. This is the most accurate measurement method and may not always correspond with digital tracking apps and watches.
