The race
Now in its 25th year, the Help the Aged Leeds Abbey Dash is a unique 10k road race with a terrific atmosphere. It is held in aid of Help the Aged, and all money raised by the race will make a real and lasting difference to the lives of vulnerable older people.
The course is perfect for serious runners and first-timers alike. It's fast and flat, taking you out of the city centre, past the grounds of the ancient Kirkstall Abbey, and back to the finish line outside the Town Hall.
