About the Altra Yorkshire Marathon
Run For All organizes this major northern England marathon from the University of York. Altra is the current title sponsor, and the weekend also includes a 10-mile race and a corporate relay.
Course
The measured road route passes York Minster before heading into surrounding villages and returning to the university. Long flat sections are quick, though rural rollers and a late incline require restraint.
Race-day weather
Mid-October usually brings cool racing temperatures, but rain and wind are common possibilities. Open country roads can feel exposed even when central York is calm.
