Jogging Buddy has teamed up with GSI Events, organisers of the Edinburgh Marathon and the Kilomathon UK road race series.

The world's first Kilomathon takes place in England on Sunday 14th March (six weeks before the London Marathon) running from Nottingham to Derby and takes in the picturesque Elvaston Castle Country Park. The Scotland Kilomathon takes place on 3rd October 2010 starting and finishing in the Royal Highland Centre in Ingliston and going over the spectacular Forth Road Bridge. This exciting new event series was launched by double Olympian Liz Yelling who said "this innovative event will be a new target distance for lots of runners".

Tony Piedade, CEO said "this looks like a great event and a distance that I am sure will appeal to runners keen for a challenge but not quite up to a full marathon."
