Step into the night, step up for research at the Anne Rowling Clinic

With two 5K race nights to choose from, you can soak up the magic of Supernova Kelpies as the spectacular sculptures glow beneath the night sky. Set in the heart of Helix Park in Falkirk, Scotland, this one-of-a-kind event unfolds beside Baron and Duke—the iconic 30-metre-high horse-head sculptures known as The Kelpies.

Get ready to shine at the Kelpies 5K! As dusk settles, pull on your brightest fluorescent gear, grab your glowsticks, and light up the course while raising funds for research at the Anne Rowling Clinic. This unforgettable run blends an awe-inspiring setting with an electric, festival-style atmosphere.
