Leeds Running Festival (August)

Join St Gemma’s Hospice at the Leeds Running Festival for a unique opportunity to run 5K, 10K or a half marathon around the beautiful Roundhay Park, Leeds.

Take the opportunity to run a chip timed 5k, 10k or Half Marathon around the beautiful Roundhay Park in Leeds.

Roundhay Park is one of the biggest city parks in Europe. It covers more than 700 acres of beautiful parkland, lakes, woodland and gardens owned by Leeds City Council – creating the perfect setting for a Sunday morning run!

Whether it is your first ever 5k or 100th Half Marathon, runners of all abilities are welcome with everyone receiving a well earned medal at the finish.

Included in your entry:
Unique venue themed medal (previous design pictured)
Chip timed results
Free official event photographs
Post race goodies and refreshments

It would be fantastic to see as many St Gemma’s runners there as possible; let’s turn the run purple and ensure everyone knows who the charity of the year is for Leeds Running Festival 2025!
