IN THE EAST – KILTWALK EDINBURGH

Taking place on Sunday, September 18, 2016, the 26-mile Mighty Stride through the capital starts at Murrayfield Stadium and will have you passing through Gypsy Brae, Granton Harbour and Victoria Park, crossing the cobbles of Leith to then walk Edinburgh’s lovely Promenade. Then it’s back inland heading for Arthur’s Seat, and a glance at the Palace before hitting the home stretch to enjoy the final celebrations.

If 26 miles is a little too adventurous, you can sign up for the Big Stroll. Covering roughly half the distance, you’ll still get a chance to stretch your legs as you set off from Murrayfield and travel across the city.

If covering the whole city of Edinburgh isn’t for you, but you still want to get involved you can sign up for the Wee Wander. Setting off from Gypsy Brae, the little over five-mile trek will still get you back in time to enjoy the after party!

The registration fees are:

The Mighty Stride

26 miles (£31.62 adults and children aged 13-16)

The Big Stroll

12 miles (£31.62 adults and children aged 10-16)

The Wee Wander

5 miles (£13.20 adults; £7.20 children aged 5-16)

To support Celtic FC Foundation through the Kiltwalk Edinburgh, please register online athttp://www.thekiltwalk.co.uk/events/edinburgh/ and make sure you select ‘Celtic FC Foundation’as the beneficiary of your efforts.

A Walker’s Pack will be sent by Kiltwalk and they will collate and manage all fundraising. However, 100% of the monies you raise will then be donated to Celtic FC Foundation.

Following registration, please make sure you contact us on 0141 551 4373 for a Celtic FC Foundation t-shirt!

Thank you so much for your wonderful and continued support of our efforts to honour the founding principles of our football club.
