Behind every great runner is an amazing motivator.

Who was it for you?

✔️ A running partner who pushed you through the tough miles?
✔️ A friend who kept you going during training when the legs got heavy?
✔️ A loved one whose memory you ran for?
✔️ A relative or friend who inspired you to run for a cause?
✔️ Someone who celebrated with you at the finish?
✔️ A cheer squad on event day?
✔️ Someone who looked after the kids so you could put the miles in?
✔️ Or a pal who signed up just to run alongside you?

However they supported you, tag the person who helped make the Inverness Half Marathon or 5K possible!👇

THE STAGES OF POST-EVENT EMOTIONS... 😂🧗‍♂️

Mile 11: "Never again. Why do I do this? My legs are made of lead."
Finish Line: "I am amazing. Where is my medal? I love running."
Next Morning: "I am never moving from this sofa again. Everything hurts."
Right Now: "Wait... when do entries for 2027 open?!" 🗓️🏃‍♀️

The Inverness running bug is real.

You’ve conquered the Highland capital, and now the countdown to doing it all over again begins!

Mark your calendars for 14 March 2027 and make sure you register interest for early bird entry! 🗓️🏅

MISSING THE START LINE ALREADY? 🦕👟

Almost two weeks since we were all lining up at Inverness Leisure, nerves jangling and hearts pumping. 💓

From the `Oggy Ois` at Torbreck and the families handing out jelly babies on Dores Road, to our incredible charity heroes raising thousands for causes close to their hearts, and our amazing volunteers making sure it ran like a dream, what a day it was! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✨

Mark your calendars for 14 March 2027 and make sure you register interest for early bird! 🗓️🏅

🌟 Runner Spotlight: Emma Pfister 🌟

Meet Emma, one of the many incredible runners who lit up the streets of Inverness on 8th March! ✨

Fresh off the Inverness Half Marathon and with Baxters @lochnessmarathon already under her belt, this student runner isn’t slowing down. Her next big milestone? The Edinburgh Marathon in May!

She says: "With the Half Marathon coinciding with International Women’s Day, and March being Endometriosis Awareness Month, I’m determined to raise as much as possible for the 1 in 10 women living with this condition."

She’s already smashed her initial goal, but still wants to raise as much as possible before she hits the start line in Edinburgh!

👑 INVERNESS, YOU ARE THE CHAMPIONS!

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? No, it’s just another incredible display of fancy dress at the Inverness Half Marathon and 5K! 🏃‍♂️🎭

Leading the pack was `Freddie Mercury`, who clearly decided that `The Show Must Go On` for all 13.1 miles. We’re pretty sure he was Travelling at the Speed of Light by the time he hit the finish line... 🏎️💨

From superheroes to dinosaurs, you didn`t just run, you brought A Kind of Magic to the streets of Inverness today.
