Asda Foundation Yorkshire Marathon
Date / Time
Length
26.20 miles (42.2 km)
Description
We're heading for another sell-out and there's no wonder why. The Yorkshire Marathon is one of the UK's most popular marathons, with places selling out in six consecutive years.
The Yorkshire Marathon very quickly established itself as one of the highlights of the North's sporting year. This popular and picturesque run, with fantastic PB potential, takes participants past some of the beautiful city of York's splendid historic sites and along scenic country lanes, making it an attractive prospect for runners of all abilities.
Described by the Daily Mirror as the Number 1 Alternative to the London Marathon and by the Guardian as a course on which to smash your PB, this race has written its own place in the UK running calendar.
Achieve a coveted personal best or simply be spurred on by great support and entertainment around the route - the Yorkshire Marathon has all the ingredients to make this an unforgettable experience. To get a flavour of the marathon take a look at the video above!
