Event Details

The Farewell See York Run York Challenge is a timed running event on a multi-terrain loop course at York Knavesmire. Participants have seven hours to complete as many laps as they wish on the "Turpin Challenge" route. Each lap is approximately 4.37 miles.

All finishers receive a medal and goody bag, regardless of the number of laps completed. The event includes a family fun run covering one mile on grass before the main start. Adults accompanying children in the fun run must be registered to receive their own medal.

Venue and Logistics
