Asda Foundation York 10K

The Asda Foundation York 10K has been hailed as one of the most beautiful city runs in the country.

 The city’s historic streets will be a riot of colour when thousands of people pull on their trainers for one of the biggest charity road races in the region.

Since its launch in 2009, the event has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for good causes. Large, enthusiastic crowds help create a vibrant atmosphere as they cheer on the entrants, running for one of the event’s partner charities or another good cause of their choice.

The route starts and finishes in Knavesmire Road alongside York Racecourse and takes in some of the city’s stunning scenery and historic landmarks, including the magnificent minster and Clifford’s Tower.

The run forms part of the lasting legacy of the late Jane Tomlinson CBE who raised almost £2m for charity through a series of endurance challenges, despite being diagnosed with incurable cancer.
