The Yorkshire Marathon has been a sell out since it was launched in 2013 and it's easy to see why it is loved by so many.
The electric on-course atmosphere and the crowds cheering you on along this fast and flat course, makes this the perfect event!
The Yorkshire Marathon starts at the University of York and then heads into the city centre. Once out of the city centre, the route will take you into the countryside, before finishing back at the university.
Date: Sunday 18th October 2026
Start: University of York
Charity Place Cost: £40
Fundraising Target: £200

We are a local mental health charity, providing life-changing support for adults, children and young people across York and surrounding areas.

With your support, we can make sure no one in the York area has to face their struggles alone.
York Mind currently offer a limited number of charity spaces to participate in the Yorkshire Marathon. As part of your charity place, we ask that you aim to achieve a fundraising target of £200.
If you have purchased a space in the Yorkshire Marathon directly through Run for All, you can still use your space to raise money for us, but you choose your own fundraising target.
The minimum fundraising target is £200. This must be raised by 11/10/2026. But don't worry, our team are here to help you from the moment you sign up to the very end!
We would love you to! Please click here and sign up to be one of our fundraising volunteers!
