Kirkstall Calverley Cutter

The Kirkstall Calverley Cutter & Kirkstall Bridge 10km, organized by Great Owl Running, is a winter running event held in Leeds. It features two distances: a challenging 16km trail race showcasing scenic views of the Leeds Liverpool Canal, River Aire, and the tough Calverley Cutting, and a fast, flat 10km out-and-back canal run suitable for all levels. The course is fully marked and marshalled, with terrain including canal towpaths, riverside trails, and public footpaths.

The race starts near the award-winning Kirkstall Bridge Inn, which serves as race HQ offering facilities like toilets and bag storage. Participants must carry mandatory winter gear, and optional medals or t-shirts can be pre-ordered to reduce waste. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
