Event details

Spring Time Canal Canter is organised by Its Grim Up North Running and is scheduled for 14/03/2026. The event takes place at the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, Wyther Lane, Kirkstall, Leeds LS5 3BT. Races are licensed by the Trail Running Association. Bibs are issued on the day at registration. Finishers receive a bespoke medal and additional treats.

Course and facilities

The route is an out-and-back along the Leeds to Liverpool Canal (Kirkstall). The organiser describes the course as entirely flat with good trail surfaces. The course is marshalled and signed, and feed and drink stations are provided approximately every 3 miles. Organisers try to be cup-less, so participants are asked to bring a reusable cup or bottle. There may be unmarshalled road crossings.

The event notes a headphones policy: large over-ear headphones are banned; bone-conducting or single in-ear use is accepted. If a participant is injured or needs to retire they should notify the closest marshal. The nearest train station is Headingley. There is no parking at the start/finish; local parking is available and Kirkstall Morrisons is listed as nearby parking about a 5 minute walk.
