Team FRT ran the OCHIL ULTRA 50-MILE race!

On Saturday 28th September, our self-proclaimed 'Stream Team'/'River Renegades' running team of Forth Rivers Trust staff participated in this year's Ochil Ultra 50-mile run.

We worked together and trained hard in preparation, running uphill in all weathers - and we had a fantastic day running from Perth to Stirling via the hills.

We are fundraising to support the Trust's work to protect and improve rivers in the Forth catchment for the benefit of wildlife, people and communities. We're passionate about rivers - and want you to be, too!

Support our fantastic hill runners in our 50-mile effort over the Ochil hills and beyond. Join us in making a difference for rivers today!

Every contribution, large or small, helps support our work to engage communities, provide citizen science opportunities, train volunteers, survey and improve river habitats, deliver works to protect local and migratory fish populations, and more.
