Scotland went 1-2-3 at the Anglo Celtic Plate earlier this year in Ireland thanks to the runs of Chris Richardson, Jason Kelly and Kyle Greig – all of Metro Aberdeen

Event entries

scottishathletics are asking for expressions of interest for the Anglo Celtic Plate 100km event taking place in Perth next Spring.

The 2022 ACP has been scheduled for Sunday 3 April  at the North Inch Park and will take place over the course, a 2.381km loop, which has been used for previous editions of the race and usually produces fast times.

Scottish athletes performed with distinction at the last edition of the ACP when it was held in Ireland last August.

And, come April, we hope to send male and female teams to Perth, with up to five selections in each category.

The event will include the British* and Scottish 100k championships, as in previous years. (*British Chamionships awaiting confirmation)

scottishathletics are thus looking for expressions of interest by noon on Wednesday 22 December.

There will also be an open 100k event, for anyone wishing to tackle what is still regarded as the classic ultra distance as well as an accompanying 50km event which will act as the Scottish 50km Road championships for 2022..
