Information from the organisers for 2021:
The Scottish Night of Miles is a unique event full of Christmas fun and features races over the rarely run distance of one mile.
Each year we collect donations ($5 suggested) from athletes and spectators then hand them on to a local Wellington charity. Our 2021 charity is the Mary Potter Hospice.
We are also grateful to our event sponsor, Lifestyle Sports, who are a long-standing supporter of Scottish Athletics and one of the premier retailers of running kit within the region.
The programme consists of a mix of children’s, senior elite and fun social events. There are several different mile races including competitive men’s and women’s races that require pre-entry, and an all-comers mile that anyone can participate in (including Father Christmas). Note: if you are a Master’s athlete who might set a new centre record for your age-grade, please enter the competitive events.
The provisional programme is outlined below. For the competitive 1 mile events for open race-walkers, and men’s and women’s running races, please enter online by 11:59pm, Wednesday 15 December. We have set an entry fee of $5, but this will go to our charity.
Anyone wanting to compete in the Kids Chocolate Fish Dash, the All-Comers Social Mile (against Father Christmas), Mile Relay or any of the sprints can enter those events on the day.
However, for the competitive sprints and field events, you need a competitor number to link your results to your details. If you have already registered for our senior track and field events this season, you will have a competitor number, and no further action is required. We will use that number. However, if you haven’t registered for the season, please register online. We will assign you a Competitor number and you can get this at check-in on the day.
