You'll be shown that the North is anything but Grim.
Enjoy a trip up the Leeds and Liverpool Canal this Valentine's. With distances ranging from 5K to marathon, all along the flat, even towpath, this event is perfect for runners of all abilities, from novices to Ultra PB chasers! One to warm the depths of your heart.
A popular event and a return to the Leeds Liverpool canal, this time just outside Bingley. The tow path on this event is great underfoot, so this flat outback (if you don’t mind 3-Rise and 5-Rise Locks) is maybe the one that allows you to push yourself to the next distance. For this chip-timed event all you have to do is choose one of the distances available.

Awesome 1st time doing Half Marathon. Staff are very welcoming and make you feel relaxed before the run....Plenty of food and drink for after crawling across the line. Chris W
Well organised, small, friendly run. Donna K
Great race - I did the 10K last time so thought this time I would do the half marathon. The route most is fast and flat when heading back other runners were saying well done. I will defo do this one again. Michael T
Always a great event. Chris H
Cute little run. Organisers were friendly and helpful, route was simple and easy. Adri Sipos
A good challenging run out. Mostly flat...if you exclude the 3 and 5 lock rise, but apart from that, beautiful scenery, a well organised event by friendly and passionate people and good treats to aid with recovery! Damian Mcintyre
