Sunday 26th October 2025

Leicester's biggest running event returns!

On Sunday 26th October 2025, lace up your trainers and join us and thousands of runners from around the county and beyond together for the Run Leicester Half Marathon and 10K. 

Beginning in Leicester’s Victoria Park, we’ll be taking you on a tour of Leicester’s city centre streets and beautiful parks with a whole host of entertainment all the way around the route to keep you going.

 
2024 was our biggest event yet, and whether you're running, cheering, or volunteering we hope that you will join us and help us make the 2025 Run Leicester Half Marathon and 10K even better!
