Easingwold 10K
The event is a fully licensed and distance certified 10 km road race on an undulating but not hilly course around Easingwold. The route is run anticlockwise: the first half contains more uphill sections and the second half more downhill sections. The course runs through town streets and rural roads at the junction of the Vale of York and the Howardian Hills, offering open views across the surrounding countryside.
Runners leave and return to the Market Square, passing landmarks such as the Medieval Butter Cross, Spring Street and Uppelby, then continuing along Crayke Road into Rookery Lane and Crayke Lane. A drinks station is positioned at the halfway point. After a short climb shortly after 8 km the route descends back into town, follows Claypenny and a shared path across Millfield, and finishes with the final 600 metres into the Market Square. Medals and water are provided after the finish and finishing times are recorded.
Event facilities are centred on the Market Square with Race HQ at The Galtres Centre located about 200 metres from the start and finish area. There are toilets in the start and finish area and public toilets in the marketplace. Parking is available in various locations around town with marshals to direct vehicles; car sharing is encouraged. Number collection operates on the day and limited entries may be accepted with a small surcharge. Millfield hosts a junior parkrun close to the Market Square on event day.
