OUTrun is a 5-mile chip-timed race in one of Glasgow's most scenic and best-loved dear green places. This is a scenic run around Kelvingrove park and along the Kelvin walkway – it's mostly a flat course suitable for all abilities, but there are a couple of hills just to make it a little bit of a challenge!


Registration costs £14/£12 (plus 75p admin). Places are limited to 500 runners, so register early to make sure that you get a place!


There will be prizes for:

  • 1st overall (male and female)
  • 1st over 40 (male and female)
  • 1st over 50 (male and female)
  • 1st FrontRunner (male and female)
  • Fastest Team Prize: first three club runners over the line
  • Biggest Team Prize: largest club prize - GFR will donate £50 to your chosen charity
  • Best Finisher: finish with style and win a prize for crossing the finish line in style
  • Best Cake: Bake your finest cake on the theme of Running with Pride
  • All runners will receive a goody bag and a technical OUTrun t-shirt.


The Start and Finish location is in Kelvingrove Park, on the Prince of Wales Bridge. The Congregation Point in front of the Thomas Carlyle statue. These are best accessed from the north end of Kelvin Way.


The course has been officially measured. Bibs and chips can be picked up on the day of the race between 8.30am-9.15am at the Congregation Point.


OUTrun is organized by Glasgow FrontRunners (GFR), Scotland's largest LGBT+ running club. Our goal is to highlight and promote LGBT participation in sport. GFR club runners have benefited from the many events organized by other local running groups, OUTrun is our way of giving something back to the wider running community by providing an additional running event to the race calendar. We hope that members from all areas of the running community will come along and help us celebrate with a fun and scenic run in the West End of Glasgow! For more information about our club and what we do see our webpage or Facebook page.

Registration for Trans / Non-Binary: Currently registration for this event requires entrants to register their gender identity as either male or female. This is because OUTrun operates under UK Athletics/Scottish Athletics rules (UKA/SA). We must do this so that the event can receive a UKA/SA permit and so be fully insured. However, GFR has been working with SA along with Edinburgh FrontRunners and LEAP Sports Scotland with the aim of recognising broader diversity. Recent changes at SA has been that registration details will soon permit greater diversity in gender recognition. In addition, we hope that this will soon extend to events such as OUTrun. Prize giving is similarly constrained by UKA/SA rules, and so OUTrun will be awarding a mix of gender, age, and non-gender based prizes to runners.
