Rock Up ‘n' Run Huddersfield

Runners gather at the Rodley Barge Pub in Rodley, Leeds, for an evening 10K race, part of IGUN’s Rock Up ‘n’ Run Summer Series. This is a pop-up event, not a large, established road race, scheduled to begin at 6:45pm, with a 5K distance also available. The entry package contributes to the event's draw: all participants receive a jumble medal, hot food, and a choice of beer or a soft drink post-race. The Huddersfield Narrow Canal provides a scenic backdrop, lending its name to the series. This waterway navigates the Pennines via 74 locks and the Standedge Tunnel, having undergone a history of closure, restoration, and eventual full reopening.
