It has been described as one of the country’s most beautiful city runs. Since its launch in 2009, the event has also grown into one of Yorkshire’s most popular 10Ks.
The Arla Protein York 10K offers runners the unique opportunity to race through the heart of this wonderful, historic city.
The route starts and finishes in Knavesmire Road, close to York Racecourse. It then takes in some of the city’s most historic landmarks, including the ancient city walls, Clifford’s Tower and the Minster.
The atmosphere will be electric from start to finish!
It's a flat and friendly 10K event that is perfect for beginners or experienced runners chasing a new personal best!
