Clubs ready to line up for Lindsays National Road Relays

Thursday 19th March 2026

Senior and Masters athletes head for Livingston on Saturday for the Lindsays National Road Races.

The races take place over loops from St Margaret’s Academy and we are delighted this year to have sponsorship support from Lindsays (as part of the Lindsays Road Race Series).

Medals are up for grabs for teams in three categories – Senior, V40 Masters and V50 Masters.

There are 120 teams entered in total across those categories and while that is down somewhat on usual numbers we thanks those clubs entered for their support of national championship events.

In the senior races, Kilbarchan AAC men and Inverness Harriers were our champions last year.

Olympian Megan Keith memorably guided Inverness to first ever golds in the National Road Relays and Olympian Callum Hawkins played a key role in the Kilbarchan team effort.

Our defending champions from 2025 in other categories are:

Masters Men: Corstorphine AAC

Masters Women: Garscube Harriers

V50 Men: Cambuslang Harriers

V50 Women: Giffnock North AC
