Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon
The Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon takes place in Leeds on Sunday 9 May 2027, with the start and finish at AMT Headingley Stadium. The course covers 26.2 miles, running north through Meanwood, around Golden Acre Park, through Bramhope and Otley, then down Leeds Road back toward the stadium.
The event raises funds for the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease Appeal and the MND Association. Participants may also support other partner charities. The marathon is associated with additional options including the Erdinger Runners Lounge VIP experience and a Yorkshire Double season ticket that combines this race with the Yorkshire Marathon.
Entrants must be aged 18 or older on race day. Event inclusions listed are a finisher medal, chip timing, a goody bag, and an optional finisher t-shirt. Race numbers are posted 7–10 days before the event; the deadline to change the postal address is six weeks before the race. Race numbers must not be transferred to other people.
On course provision includes pacers with visible time flags, water stations supplying 330 ml bottles, Applied Nutrition isotonic drinks and gels, fixed and roaming first aid, and a recovery unit near the finish. Baggage larger than an A4 sheet is not permitted in the stadium; baggage labels are attached to race numbers. Toilets will be available around the stadium and on the course.
Sustainability measures include recycling bins at water stations and trainer drop-off points run with JogOn.
