- RunThrough UK August 2025Join us for Edinburgh Running Festival on Sunday 3rd August 2025
Join us at the brand new Edinburgh Running Festival on 3rd August 2025! In view of the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the iconic Arthur's Seat, these undulating half marathon, 10k and 5k routes will take you on closed roads around Edinburgh's Holyrood Park.
This is the perfect opportunity to take in some of the sights of Edinburgh, whilst bagging yourself a PB or tackling a new challenge.
With RunThrough you can expect a friendly team of marshals to help guide you around the course and cheer you on the finish, a lively and well serviced event village with plenty of food and drink options including excellent warm coffee and free goodies from our partners at the finish line after your hard effort.

We have been extensively researching what runners consider important, and sustainability is fast becoming the top issue. Click here to see what RunThrough is doing for sustainability.
T-Shirts at events have become a hot topic with concerns around the quality not being high enough to wear on a regular basis. We have decided to tackle this by offering a RunThrough Kit Technical T-Shirt with a retail value of £22 for £12 with the addition of the Edinburgh Running Festival logo printed on the chest.
We can do this with our partner RT Kit as part of a strategic decision to raise awareness about the quality of the product whilst reducing the overall cost of events for those who would prefer not to have a t-shirt included..
