Event information

Back by popular demand, the iconic Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon RELAY is returning to Leeds to celebrate the legendary Rob Burrow and this time, proud to announce Clarion Solicitors as the title sponsor. 

Offering a team-based way to take part in the iconic Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon, we invite groups of 7 to take on the 26.2 mile course.

Whether your team is made up of family, friends, or colleagues, this is a great opportunity to come together and RUN FOR ROB.

Each team-mate will run a set distance before passing the 'metaphorical rugby ball' to the next team-mate, aiming to cross the finish line in the quickest combined time and be crowned champions. 

If you've always wanted to run a marathon but weren't sure you could complete the distance alone, then this might be the answer. Accessible to all, distances within the relay vary, making the run both fun and a great way to fundraise and earn your marathon medal. 

Please note that once runners have completed the event, they won’t be able to continue along the remainder of the course.

Don't miss your chance to be part of this unforgettable event. 

How to enter:

  • Teams require 6 members, with entry costing £380 per team - discounts are available for registered charities.
  • Mixed groups must include at least three female runners.
