Leeds/Liverpool Canal, Wyther Lane, Kirkstall, Leeds, LS5 3BT, United Kingdom
The Yorkshire Weekend Saunter Series in Kirkstall is a relaxed, community-focused running event held along the Leeds/Liverpool Canal in Kirkstall. Part of the Yorkshire Weekend Saunter Series organised by It's Grim Up North Running, the event offers multiple distance options so participants can pick a distance that suits their ability and pace. The 2026 edition includes 5K, 10K and a Half Marathon, and the route emphasises scenic towpath running rather than competitive fanfare.
Entries are flexible with the option to pre-book or rock up and run on the day, and route maps are provided by the organiser for each distance. Finishers receive a jumble medal and are offered hot food plus a choice of beer or a soft drink, making the event social and welcoming for a wide range of runners. The event branding stresses inclusivity and an easygoing atmosphere, appealing to newcomers as well as regular club runners.
