Race Across Scotland 215

from £39.99

Race Across Scotland is a unique ultra-distance challenge that combines runnable terrain with relentless endurance demands across the Southern Upland Way.

Covering approximately 215 miles coast-to-coast across Scotland, the race requires a different type of preparation compared to mountainous ultras. While elevation still plays a role, success here depends heavily on aerobic durability, pacing discipline, fuelling, sleep management, and the ability to keep moving efficiently for days at a time.

Over 20 weeks the training progresses gradually, helping you build volume safely while helping you avoid the common trap of excessive mileage too early in the training process.

The training includes:

  • Progressive endurance development

  • Long runs and back-to-back sessions

  • Fatigue resistance training

  • Structured recovery weeks

  • Race-specific pacing preparation

  • Guidance for fuelling and ultra-distance durability

Race Across Scotland is as much about consistency and resilience as speed. This plan helps you arrive prepared for the physical and mental demands of one of the UK’s most respected ultra-distance events.

What Does the Plan Include?

What Is Training Peaks Premium?

Training Peaks Premium gives you a lot of extra features, but they aren’t necessary for everyone. One of the big differences is it gives you the ability to move workouts. Our plans are carefully designed so that each week and exercise compliments the next. But life doesn't always allow us to follow it exactly. Whilst we don’t recommend changing our plans structure, moving workouts around to fit your schedule better can be more productive overall. Don’t worry, we won’t leave you on your own. If you have any questions get in touch.
