(1)About Running in Aberdeenshire on Verus
Aberdeenshire has one of the broader calendars Verus covers: 6 races spanning 5 distances, from 2 ultra marathons, 1 marathon, 1 10K, 1 5K and 1 half marathon. A county with that range is one you can train a whole year in without leaving.
The calendar is concentrated rather than continuous: 5 months of the year have something on, and October is the busiest. Worth knowing if you are planning a build — the racing here comes in clusters, so a goal race and a tune-up are not always the sensible distance apart.
Alongside the races, Aberdeenshire has 5 parkruns — free, weekly, and the way a lot of people here got started.
If nothing here fits your dates, the fullest calendars Verus covers elsewhere are Highland (9 races), Scottish Borders (7 races) and Argyll and Bute (7 races).
