The York 5k, 10k and Half Marathon Winter Warmer Run

About this event

The York Winter Warmer Run tackles the challenge of cold-weather training head-on, offering three road distances through this historic city. Runners can choose between a 5K, 10K, or half marathon, making it a solid option whether testing fitness or chasing a winter PB. The fully marked courses wind through York's streets during the quieter season, when fewer tourists mean more space to run. It's the kind of event that helps maintain momentum through February's toughest training weeks, with the city's medieval architecture providing a scenic backdrop even on grey days. The mix of distances means friends at different levels can share race day, even if they're tackling different challenges.
