The Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon – Sunday 12th October

Wednesday, November 6th, 2013

The Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon has quickly established itself as one of the highlights of the White Rose County’s sporting year.

This popular and picturesque run – flatter and faster than London, Paris, Chicago and Berlin – takes participants past some of York’s splendid historic sites and along scenic country lanes, making it an attractive prospect for runners of all abilities.

It proved a hit from the word go with all 6,000+ places for the inaugural 2013 event snapped up in just 3 days. Athletes – professional and amateur – came from not only across the UK but from France, Spain, Ireland, the USA, Africa and the Caribbean.

The marathon is staged by Marathon Yorkshire Ltd, a sister company to Jane Tomlinson’s Run For All; the organisation behind the popular Leeds, Hull, York and Pennine-Lancashire 10Ks and the Leeds Half Marathon. The well-regarded Run For All brand has already become synonymous with well-organised, quality sporting events throughout Yorkshire and the North of England and The Plusnet Yorkshire Marathon is no different.

Date: Sunday 12th October 2014
Location: University of York, Heslington, York, North Yorkshire YO10 5DD
