Did you know we give Kiltwalkers the chance to win an extra £500 for their chosen charity simply by snapping a picture with some of our props or any other Arnold Clark branded merchandise and sharing it with us using #ArnoldClarkKiltwalkComp on Instagram, X (Formerly known as Twitter) and TikTok or you can comment your photo under our competition post on Facebook. There will be five winners per event so keep a look out for our Roadies on the day!
We hope your fundraising is going well! Remember Arnold Clark will match any fundraising you do by up to £1,250.
We will begin processing your match funding one week after your Kiltwalk. The Arnold Clark Events team will be in touch via the email address you signed up to the Kiltwalk with to let you know what date they will be completing your match funding.
Please note, if donations are added to your page after we have completed your match funding, the additional donation amount cannot be matched.
Anyone that signs up to the Kiltwalk is automatically entered into our prize draw to win £30,000 worth of car credit to put towards your dream car. Meaning you, your friends and families can win, simply from signing up to the Kiltwalk!
Need some advice on how to prepare for your walk? Look no further! We caught up with some Arnold Clark employees that have taken part in Kiltwalks over the years, to hear their top tips for a successful Kiltwalk.
If this is your first time walking this distance, it's best to be prepared! Check out this walking plan from Lucy, our health and fitness partner, to help you build up to the big day.
It's important to stretch before you start any long-distance walking as this will decrease the chance of injury and help to mobilise your joints. It will also reduce muscle soreness afterwards.
Watch the videos from our fitness partner Lucy Borrie who shares a couple of different stretches that you can do as part of your training and on the day of your Kiltwalk.
Warm up
Lower body strength
Cool down
We've partnered with our ambassador Just Jess to share some nutritional snacks to keep your energy high throughout your walk.
Cranachan flapjacks
Banana and peanut butter energy bars
High protein breakfast burritos
Caramel protein pudding and biscoff pancakes
Come along and visit the team at the Kiltwalk Village to pick up some freebies or have your face painted.
