Medals and T-shirts are often a standard provision of race entry. But this can sometimes mean you end up taking home extras you didn't really want (or leaving them behind!)
To make sure you end up with exactly what you want, we now provide the option to add medal or t-shirt purchases to your entry order. This means we can minimise waste and also keep down the cost of the standard entry for all.
If you fancy doing a good deed, you could also opt to make a 'Trees not Tees' donation. This will pay for a tree to be planted...an ever-growing memento of your race day!
Please note optional extras are only available for a certain time before race date. Entry on the day is available but extras will be limited to any excess stock for purchase.

Organiser's description
A fast fun packed forest trail run with some challenging uphills and rewarding downhills! Starting in Meanwood, the Holly Hustle takes in some of the best trails that Leeds has to offer. A combination of beautiful Meanwood Park and the Hollies, famous for well-kept paths through extensive woodlands, with a vast collection of different species of flowers. Then onto the marvellous Meanwood Valley Trail, past the Seven Arches viaduct and Adel Crag.
This course at this time of year is very likely to be a mud bath, we’d like to recommend all runners to wear appropriate footwear. Due to the nature of the course (narrow paths, technical sections) headphones are not recommended for this event. This course contains one small private road section (marshalled) and runners will be advised to stay on the pavement where possible.
