Steve Haywood Health & Fitness

Here are races in Northern England and beyond for the rest of the year. We’ve omitted all those races that we found to be full, cancelled or closed to new entries (including the Bradford 10K, Jane Tomlinson 10K “Run for All” in Leeds and some Race for Life venues/times). All of the local races are within 150 miles of Yorkshire with some of the larger races from further away also listed. We will keep updating this page.

Steve Haywood is able to assist with training for every distance and will often know organisers and routes if you wish to prepare for a particular race. Click here to contact Steve.
