Leeds 10K
The Leeds 10K is an annual city road race taking place on Sunday 13 June 2027. It was founded in 2006 by a fundraiser who had raised £1.8 million while battling terminal cancer; 2027 marks the event's 20th anniversary. The race is organised by Run For All and attracts thousands of participants, fundraisers, volunteers and spectators.
The course starts outside the Parkinson Steps at the University of Leeds, passes through Headingley, returns into the city and goes past Leeds Arena before finishing on the Headrow. Entrants must be aged 15 years or over on the day.
Race services include chip timing, a finisher medal, a goody bag and an optional finisher's t-shirt. On-course support comprises fixed water stations supplying 330 ml bottles, recycling bins at water stations, pacers carrying flags with target finish times, and fixed and roaming first-aid teams. An Event Village on Millennium Square hosts baggage drop, food and drink vendors and partner charities. Toilets are available at Millennium Square and the start area. Photographers will be on course and results are published after the event.
The event operates sustainability measures including trainer drop-off stations in partnership with JogOn and encourages use of public transport or car sharing. Runners are reminded not to allow others to compete using their race number for safety reasons. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
