York 5K (DEC '26)

The Even Splits York 5K returns on December 04, 2026, offering runners the chance to race along the flat and fast University of York Sport Village Cycle Circuit. This monthly series from February through December invites participants to challenge their personal bests in a chip-timed event sanctioned by EA (results appear on Power of 10). Registration opens at 7:30 PM for all entrants, with finish line results texted immediately upon crossing the timing mat and kilometre splits published online the following day. To top it off, runners receive a chocolate bar post-race.
Whether you're aiming to track your monthly progress or competing against club rivals, this race offers flexibility and convenience. Enter individually for £10/£12 or save on bulk purchases in advance. First-time participants will be assigned an embedded timing chip number at registration, which can also be used for the Leeds 5K event. Existing runners with a previous RED 5K race number (issued from 2020-24) may reuse it by registering online and providing their old number.
All entrants receive one complimentary number replacement within twelve months; subsequent replacements incur a £4 charge.
