Hubble Bubble & Ghostly 1 Mile is a Halloween-themed trail running event organised by Its Grim Up North Running on 31 October 2026 at the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, Wyther Lane, Kirkstall, Leeds LS5 3BT. The event offers multiple race distances and a separate fun run aimed at children and families.

The course follows a flat, scenic out-and-back route along the Leeds to Liverpool Canal and is licensed by the Trail Running Association. The route is marshalled and fully signed. Feed and drink stations are provided about every three miles; participants are asked to bring a reusable cup or bottle because the event is cup-less.

Extras include a bespoke Halloween medal and finish-line treats for finishers, plus spot prizes for fancy dress; fancy dress is encouraged. Practical information published for the event notes that there is no parking at the start and finish, with nearby Morrisons car park recommended, and the nearest train station is Headingley. Safety guidance includes restrictions on over-ear headphones, presence of some unmanned road crossings, and marshals on course to assist runners.
