Run Yorkshire (& Humberside) in Leeds

supported by

In Olympic Year, we are attempting to get over 3000 new runners in Yorkshire & Humberside

In Leeds our target is 800 and we are setting up around 50 new groups

· at various times of day (weekdays and weekends)

· all over the City

· in a variety of locations – leisure centres, workplaces etc

· existing groups e.g. work colleagues, mother/toddler, etc or getting new groups together

· leaders will have been on an England Athletics Run Leader course and are fully insured

See below for the groups that have been set up already. Just contact the group leader to check the finer details. Do not worry if the group has been running several weeks already, the leader is trained to tailor the session according to the mix of participants. All groups are suitable for beginners, although intermediate groups will be added according to demand.
