Event Description

Marathon - Half Marathon - Family Fun Run

The route is a bit different…is still challenging, it is still hilly, it is still Wakefield.

Expect some hills, some lanes & some fun

This is no ordinary marathon. It is a unique, bespoke, family event with the option of a half marathon and family fun run.

The Fun

There will be the family fun run with a whole lot of other activities to keep your supporters happy; a climbing wall, zorbing, mini races and giant tennis.

The Food

Our catering comes from the Teapigs Tea Tent with their delicious brand of tea and of course scrumptious cake and biscuits from the local trendy Woman’s Institute. What race would be complete without cake? Other bang on trend mobile catering tents will also be in the event ground to help you refuel. And best of all local micro breweries will be on site in the beer tent, perfect for celebrating your running achievements.

The Entertainment

On the well marked course you will be supported by a whole host of people, local running groups will be having a BBQ at one of the refuelling points #teamsausage, a local school choir will be singing specially selected running songs to keep you going, an awesome band will be up the on the hill booming out some tunes to motivate you and of course every fuel and drink station will have snacks, drinks and importantly cake.

The Charity

Our charity partner is our local charity The Laura Crane Trust and they will be handing you out your finishers bags containing your bespoke medal, your technical t-shirt and a bag stuffed full of running related goodies.
