About The Event
The Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon will see over 10,000 participants take on a route through Leeds that starts and finishes at Headingley Stadium.
How to enter the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon
There are two ways you can join Team Macmillan:
Secure a charity place at the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon
Bag yourself one of our charity places and help us be there for the 11,850 people diagnosed with cancer every year in West Yorkshire.
There is no entry fee and we ask for a fundraising pledge of £500.
Use your own place
If you have bought a place in the race already and would like to run for us, sign up here and we'll get a free Macmillan running top sent to you. There's no minimum sponsorship, just raise as much as you can!
We estimate there to be 116,000 people living with cancer in West Yorkshire by 2030.
