2,500km Glasgow relay to kick off with help of Rangers
Cerebra's Relay Your Way on June 3 will mark the first of 300 stages at Pinkston Watersports.
On the first day, the relay baton, held initially by one lucky child, will be passed from Cerebra's unique fibreglass boat to a group of paddleboarders and then onto the shore.
The baton will travel across Glasgow, involving three schools in running and cycling stages, and making a special stop at Ibrox Stadium for a penalty shoot-out with the Rangers' mascot Broxi the Bear.

The relay will continue for 33 days, journeying through over 40 counties, before reaching the finish line at Windsor on July 6.
Cerebra, a UK charity dedicated to supporting children with a neurological condition, created Relay Your Way to promote inclusivity in sports.
The event hopes to bring together thousands of people in a celebration of accessibility, adventure, and inclusion.
The baton itself was designed by the Cerebra Innovation Centre and will be carried by wheelchair users, adapted surfers, and frame runners.
The route will cover more than 300 stages, ranging from a 200-metre walk to an 80-kilometre cycling challenge, ensuring there are opportunities for everyone to participate, regardless of ability.
