Take part in the inaugural Boots 500 event

The Saints Community Development Foundation are proud to announce a new event, the Boots 500, which will take place in August!

A big day out for our little runners!

The Boots 500 is a fun and exciting 500-metre family fun run taking place at the BrewDog Stadium. Created especially for children aged 3–5, this is the perfect opportunity for little ones to experience the thrill of crossing a finish line in a safe, supportive and memorable environment.

The route will begin just outside the stadium before finishing inside the ground, giving every child the chance to enjoy a fantastic stadium finish.

Each child must complete the course alongside a parent or guardian, making it a special experience to share together. Every young finisher will receive a commemorative medal and an official event T-shirt to celebrate their achievement.

Event Day Information

On arrival, participants should head to The Marching Inn, where our check-in desk will be open before the event.

After checking in, families are welcome to enjoy a complimentary tea or coffee before making their way to the start area. To help everything run smoothly, attendees will enter through one entrance and exit via a separate door after registration.

The event is to be held on Wednesday 19th August, with gates opening at 9:00am, followed by a special pre-race warm-up with Boots before the race starts at 10:00am. To ensure a fun and safe experience for everyone, children will be split into five groups of 20 runners, with staggered start times.

Route Details

The exact start and finish locations are currently being finalised and will be confirmed within the next week. Once confirmed, all participants will receive the full event information ahead of race day.

We can’t wait to welcome our youngest runners and their families for what promises to be a fantastic day at the BrewDog Stadium!
