The countdown to The P&J Run Fest 2024 has started.
So here is our first look at the course for all you runners to feast on.
Both the 5K and 10K courses take a winding route through some beautiful Aberdeen countryside, with the race starting and finishing in front of the magnificent P&J Live building.
But don’t take our word for it — watch our video explainer from race organiser Neil Mackland who has the lowdown on what you can expect on the day, and everything you need to know from parking to prizes.
If you haven’t signed up for the April 14 event, then don’t delay. There’s a 10K or 5k route available with age restrictions in force and a 1K race for families with young children.
Best of all, it’s for charity. Participants are raising funds for The P&J 275 Community Fund.
