Leeds Half Marathon

The increasingly popular Leeds Half Marathon attracts over 9,000 runners, join them and run for #TeamBones!

Leeds Half Marathon - Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update

Due to concerns over public safety, and in-keeping with current advice from the UK government regarding the current COVID19 outbreak, the organisers of the Leeds Half Marathon have decided to postpone the event until further notice - an official statement from the organisers can be found here. Bone Cancer Research Trust will endeavour to update this page as soon as we hear anything from the event organisers – whether it’s a rescheduling of the event, or a cancellation. If you have any questions in the meantime, please email fundraising@bcrt.org.uk.

The Leeds Half Marathon is firmly established as one of the highlights on Leeds’ sporting calendar thanks to its challenging course, enthusiastic crowds and fantastic atmosphere.

The route starts in The Headrow alongside Victoria Gardens, heads out of the city centre, takes in a section of the Ring Road and returns via Abbey Road and Kirkstall Road before finishing in Cookridge Street alongside Millennium Square.
