The Yorkshire Marathon
The Yorkshire Marathon is a full marathon held on Sunday 17 October 2027, with the start and finish located at the University of York. The route leaves the city walls to pass through surrounding countryside and named points such as Stockton-on-the-Forest, Buttercrambe Moor Wood and Balloon Tree Farm before returning to the university campus.
Entrants must be 18 years or older on the day. The event includes a finisher medal, chip timing, a goody bag and an optional finisher t-shirt. Pacers sponsored by Arla Protein will be available on course and carry flags showing target finish times. Water stations provide 330 ml bottles; Applied Nutrition stations offer isotonic drinks and energy gels. First aid is positioned at fixed stations near water points, plus a first aid and recovery unit near the finish and roaming first aiders around the Event Village.
The Event Village is on University of York Campus West and offers food and drink for purchase and charity stands. Baggage is stored at University of York Campus South; baggage labels attach to race numbers. Race numbers are not posted to addresses outside the UK; overseas entrants can collect numbers at the Race Office. Recycling bins are provided at water stations and JogOn trainer drop-off points are available in the Event Village. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
