Piglove By The River 5K & 10K Autumn is a small evening race held at Piglove By The River on Clarence Road in Leeds. Both distances begin at 7:00 pm. Registration opens at race HQ one hour prior, with a field limit of 150 runners. This is an adults-only event offering 5K and 10K routes along public footpaths, riverside trails, and tarmac paths.
The 5K route starts at Piglove, proceeds along the Trans Pennine Trail for 2.5 km, and turns back just before Thwaite Mills. The course is flat, fast, and uses well-maintained paths. The 10K follows the same initial section. Depending on the specific route, it either extends past Thwaite Mills onto slightly rougher riverside terrain or covers the 5K route twice. The course remains very flat by sticking to the river, although the 10K incorporates a small bridge with steps. Turnaround points are clearly marked and marshalled. Toilets and bag storage are available at race HQ. All finishers receive a drink from Piglove Brewery. Medals and t-shirts are available as optional extras, sold separately to reduce waste.
