View allAbout This Event
The Gentle 5k and a drink event takes place at Leith Links in Edinburgh on 27 October 2026. Participants will engage in a relaxed 5k run around the area, followed by socialising at a nearby pub. The event encourages runners of all paces and includes safety measures for visibility during darker months.
Like to run? Keen to meet new people that don't take themselves too seriously? Join us for a gentle run, followed by a drink and a chat at the pub. This is our regular Tuesday night session. We'll do a 5k loop which takes us around Leith Links and the Restalrig Railway Path, after which we'll head to Malone's on Constitution Street, just along from the starting point. Bag drop is permitted here if you have things you'd like to leave during the run. This is a relaxed, social run where you are invited to run at your own pace and we aim to have a back marker at each run. For everyone’s safety, particularly during the darker months, we try to choose a route which is well lit, easy to follow and as car free as possible. However, some small sections can still be dark so please dress for visibility if you can, and head torches are a definite bonus. Here's our run - https://onthegomap.com/s/3nbc7uoa Meet us at the Robert Burns statue on Bernard Street/Constitution Street at 6:30pm for a 6:35pm start. Boring disclaimer: You participate in EdinBar Runners events at your own risk. The organisers accept no liability for any personal injury or damage to personal property incurred at our events, no matter how they occur.
