The edition on 7 May 2026 features separate 5K and 10K races with registration opening at 18:00 and staggered starts in the evening to keep the event compact and friendly. The event is aimed at a wide range of abilities and is promoted as beginner‑friendly with a relaxed, community atmosphere.
Runners can expect a route by the Leeds & Liverpool Canal and an event village offering post‑race refreshments and small‑scale services. All entrants receive a jumble medal and a post‑race drink, with hot food and a sweetie bag also provided; parking nearby is available at the local Morrisons car park. The event emphasises a pay‑on‑the‑night approach alongside online payment options, making it easy to turn up and race.
