There's the option to either go one way or take it up a a notch and go both ways. Both will end at our Ellon cafe that will stay open till 10pm for you to celebrate your achievement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eSince the recent path just by our Udny cafe opened, there is the perfect off-road running route of just over 9km between our two cafes..... so let's do it! This run is purely for fun with no timing and no beans given for how fast or slow you do it, just how big your smile is! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eDepending on how bonkers you are (or maybe if you can't work out cars!) there are two options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSingle espresso\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStart at our Udny cafe and head to our Ellon cafe!

There you will be greeted with a sweaty high five, given a shot of espresso and sent on your way back to Ellon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003ePlease only enter the double if you can comfortably run 20km (about a half marathon) . You don't have to be fast at all but should be ok running that distance. Start time in Ellon is between 4pm and 4:30pm. We can look after any bags you would like to leave at the Ellon cafe while you run. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoute\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDescribed from the Udny end\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eFrom the Udny cafe the route goes up the pavement along the side of the B9000 (the Newburgh road) until you get to Wood Recycleability. From there, you go along the new path, which leads you to a very quiet country road, which you turn left on and go down until you join the old railway line - the Formartine and Buchan way. Turn left on the line and head to Ellon!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eCarefully cross the road at the start of Ellon near the ToolDen sign and continue your way along the railway line over the bridge in Ellon. At the end of the bridge, descend the steps on your right to the riverside walk. Head along beside the river until just past the Church of Scotland. Turn left and head up to The Square, cross the zebra crossing, waving your arms in the air as you have made it! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eYou can see it on a map \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/viewer?mid=1eBBOVZNa-KcGSLvwppiOOX_bYXMA05a6\u0026amp;amp;usp=sharing\" title=\"link to map\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"link to map\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/viewer?mid=1eBBOVZNa-KcGSLvwppiOOX_bYXMA05a6\u0026amp;amp;usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/viewer?mid=1eBBOVZNa-KcGSLvwppiOOX_bYXMA05a6\u0026amp;amp;usp=sharing\" title=\"link to map\"\u003e.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn the day\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe single espresso runners will check-in at the Udny cafe between 3:30pm and 4pm, to leave the cafe between 4pm and 4:30pm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eThe double espresso runners will check-in at the Ellon cafe between 3:30pm and 4 pm to leave the cafe between 4pm and 4:30pm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eIt is imagined the double espresso runners will be moving at a slightly faster pace on average so you can high five each other as you pass and share some encouragement. This will also mean neither cafe gets over crowded with registration and runners of both distances at the same time. It also might stagger the end a little bit so the Ellon cafe can cope getting all the celebratory drinks poured not all at the same time! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eThe glorious finish line is at the Ellon cafe that will remain open till 10 pm with the usual selection of draft beers, wines, cocktails, meals, cakes, coffees etc to sit in or take away. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEntry fee\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eEntry is £14, of which £2 goes to the Udny Paths Group who worked so hard to get this path up to the railway line, and many others in the area, usable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach runner will get a prize at the end of a wee bag of coffee and a medal made by the awesome \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bonnytonpotter\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Bonnyton Potter\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBonnyton Potter\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe boring but necessary bits \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e- the run is totally for fun and no responsibility is taken for you taking it too seriously. \u003cbr\u003e- You are on your own once you leave either cafe.
