About The Event
How to enter the Loch Ness Marathon
There are two ways you can join Team Macmillan in this event.
Secure a charity place at the Loch Ness Marathon
Our charity places are a great way to make a difference to people affected by cancer with every step. We ask that you pledge to raise a minimum of £400 in sponsorship and pay a £40 registration fee.
To get a charity place please visit the race organisers website and sign up for a Macmillan charity place. The registration fee is made payable to the race organisers.
Use your own place
If you have bought a place in the race already and would like to run for us, sign up here and we'll get a free Macmillan running top sent to you. There's no minimum sponsorship, just raise as much as you can.
