Set against the backdrop of an 8km undulating trail, runners will pass the Endure24 Leeds course features wide, runnable trails through a mix of forest and heathland. You’ll pass the 18th century Temple of the Lead Lads and the Roundhouse, before working your way back to the Event Village for a well-earned beverage.

Whether you’re chasing personal records or simply soaking in the atmosphere, there’s a place for everyone at this unique endurance event. Spectators are encouraged to join too, adding to the electric energy throughout the weekend.
Nick Tuppen, CEO of Threshold Sports, said: "Endure24 is all about the social side of ultra-running. Whether you’re flying solo or part of a big team, everyone shares the simple goal of conquering as many laps as they can in 24 hours. To give you a taste of the vibe, last year’s opening lap was won by a guy dressed as a nun, handing over to his teammate dressed as Batman! Off the course, runners and supporters can enjoy live DJs, craft beer from local breweries, street food, a kids' zone, and the latest trail running gear. It’s a festival atmosphere that celebrates the sheer joy of Ultras.”
