Run Bolton Abbey

Run Bolton Abbey

Run Bolton Abbey is a trail running event located on the Bolton Abbey Estate in North Yorkshire. The event offers participants the opportunity to run on exclusive parts of the estate that are not typically open to the general public. The setting features autumnal scenery and trail paths that navigate around the Abbey. Proceeds from the event support the Sue Ryder Manorlands Hospice.

The event features several trail distances to accommodate different preferences:

• Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
• 10 Miles
• 10K
• 2.4 mile family fun run

The courses are described as hilly and consist of a single lap. The 10 mile and half marathon distances have strict cut-off times for participants. The race routes are revised to include views of the Abbey, and the 10k course is designed to be less difficult than previous iterations. There are no distance markers on the course, and the event is not suitable for wheelchairs.

Event infrastructure includes water stations and toilets located at the Race HQ in the field opposite Cavendish Pavilions. There are no changing facilities, showers, or baggage storage areas provided. All finishers receive a medal crafted from fallen trees found within the Bolton Abbey Estate. Parking is included in the entry fee, allowing participants to access the estate for the remainder of the day.

At 11:00 am, the event observes a one-minute silence for Remembrance Day. Entry on the day is not permitted, and there is a total entry limit of 1,200 participants across all distances. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
