The event, scheduled for Sunday, August 25, is the first half marathon to take place in the Lang Toun for 30 years.

The route takes in some of the town’s finest landmarks including Beveridge Park, Dunnikier Park, Ravenscraig Park, Fife Coastal Path, and historic Dysart, including the famous harbour where ‘Outlander’ was filmed.

The final few miles also take in the newly refurbished Waterfront where there is a flat measured mile used for the local running clubs and walkers to enjoy.

Paralympian Derek Rae is the race ambassador.

The event is supported by both Fife Council and town centre BID company, Kirkcaldy4All.
