About Leeds Running Festival 5K
Sunday 5th April 2026

Join us for a unique opportunity to run a 5k in support of CHSF around Roundhay Park in Leeds, one of the biggest city parks in Europe.

Each mile will be accurately marked out and there are plenty of helpers to keep you quite literally on track and encourage you on your way to the finish. Included in your entry fee is a themed medal, water and post-race goodies. Come and enjoy the day with us; we hope to see you there!

Registration fee: £26
Minimum fundraising pledge: Raise as much as you can!
