Inov-8 partnership
We are very pleased to announce that we have teamed up with Inov-8 as our official clothing and footwear partner.
At Trail Running Scotland we understand the importance of using the right equipment. We value good design, quality and value for money. We have teamed up with some key brands who we believe are the best at what they do. These partnerships allow us to offer exclusive discounts to everyone who comes on a course with us.
There is no doubt that the Lake District base of Inov-8 has had a huge impact on their designs, the grippiest shoes for the slippiest mud in the world!
We have run in a lot of different shoes over the years, but consistently come back to Inov-8 for grip and quality. Likewise we like their clothing ranges and find the water-poofs actually work!

Latest News
On the 29th May I completed the Martin Moran Round in Torridon, in a time of 21 hours and 45 minutes, becoming the first person to repeat the round since it was created in 2022.
Just because someone puts some nice pictures on instagram and seems to do a lot of skydiving, you wouldn’t jump out of a plane with them before asking a few more questions! If you are heading into the mountains, or remote trails of Scotland, you should also have a few questions to ask when choosing a running guide.
Vision
At Trail Running Scotland we are working hard towards the vision of a vibrant community of runners, connected through shared values of health, wellbeing, personal performance and an appreciation of the wild places we choose to play in. We aim to do this by providing the highest quality of skills training and inspirational experiences.
Values
We believe:
- The environment in which we run is fundamental to our enjoyment of the sport.
- Connection with our landscape and natural history fosters a greater appreciation of our environment and therefore our impact upon it.
- Every runner has the potential to develop given the right training and motivation.
- Every runner can find their own personal version of high performance.
- Every running experience should be fun.
- The trail running community should be welcoming, inclusive and diverse.
We are proud to support The Green Runners
