Four marathon races were held in Scotland in 2019, Inverness's Baxters Loch Ness Marathon  being the longest running of them, having started in 2002. 

The Marathon starts on the high ground between Fort Augustus and Foyers and drops down to the banks of Loch Ness at Foyers. From there, the route follows the loch’s south eastern shore, heading north east towards Dores on the northern tip of the loch. From Dores, the race heads directly into the centre of Inverness, turning left over the main road bridge and left again for the last half mile along the River Ness to the finish at Bught Park in the centre of Inverness.

The drop in the course route makes it a downhill course, ineligible for rankings.

Race winners since the first race in 2002 are:

Edinburgh has hosted an annual marathon that has run each year since 2003. Currently it forms part of the Edinburgh Marathon Festival, usually in May. The current route was introduced in 2007 and begins in the city centre, moves out of Edinburgh into East Lothian, finishing at Musselburgh. It is a point-to-point course with a drop of approximately 40 metres, making it acceptable for rankings but not for records. The pre-2007 courses were compliant.

The first marathon was held in 2017 as the Stirling Scottish Marathon. In 2018 and 2019 it received sponsorship and was retitled the Great Stirling Run. In 2020, it will revert back to its original name.

The Strathearn marathon commenced in 2012 and has been run annually since. The route follows predominantly quiet B roads in Strathearn, starting and finishing at the Cultybraggan Camp just outside Comrie, with about 1500 feet of ascent.
