Yorkshireman Off Road Marathon

The Yorkshireman Off Road Marathon and Half Marathon, organized by Keighley and Craven Athletics Club, is a popular off-road running event held in the scenic Bronte Country near Haworth, UK. The full marathon covers 26.2 miles with 3,065 feet of ascent, while the half marathon is approximately 14.8 miles with 1,750 feet of ascent. Both races feature well-stocked feed stations, challenging moorland, trails, and woodland terrain, and require mandatory kit per Fell Runners Association rules.

The event is known for its friendly atmosphere, high female participation (52% in the half marathon), and offers solo and pairs categories. It includes chip timing, generous cut-offs, and hot food at the finish. Entries open in October and the race sells out quickly. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
