Leeds Country Way In A Day 2026

The Leeds Country Way In A Day is a 100K ultra run completing a full loop around Leeds. It begins early in the morning from St John's Community Church in Greengates. The route follows the Leeds Country Way, a long-distance walk of approximately 62 miles, making this an event for those prepared to spend a full day on paths, tracks, and brief road sections, distinct from a typical road race. The course encircles the city, staying within seven miles of Leeds City Square, yet much of it offers a rural feel. Participants navigate public rights of way, such as footpaths and bridleways, passing through nearby towns, villages, parks, and nature reserves, with open vistas towards the West and North Yorkshire countryside.
