About this event
The Rothwell Cakeathon takes runners through the rolling terrain of Rothwell Country Park in West Yorkshire, with four distances spanning from a 10.7km taster to the full marathon. Organized by It's Grim Up North Running, the event features a looping course that winds through the park's varied landscape, offering proper elevation to test the legs. What sets this race apart is the feed stations stocked with sweets and cake (hence the name), plus the famously supportive marshals who keep spirits high. Every finisher earns a medal and a well-deserved slice of cake. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between competitive and welcoming, making it a solid choice for runners looking to challenge themselves on Yorkshire trails.
