It is also supporting Rob Burrow, who was diagnosed with MND in 2019, with a donation being made to his fund following the event.

The 15th anniversary is being marked with a brand new Leeds 10K route through the city, the first since 2015.

It starts outside the steps of the Parkinson Building before taking runners out of the city centre, along Moorland Road, Hyde Park Road, Hyde Park Corner, Headingley Lane, Otley Road, Shaw Lane, Grove Lane, Meanwood Road, Lovell Park Road and back into the city centre for the big finish on The Headrow.
