Connect Yorkshire sponsor Leeds Rhinos are pleased to announce their upcoming Marathon Relay. The event has been created to celebrate and commemorate teamwork and friendship, just as Rob Burrow exemplified.
Joining 7 of your colleagues, friends or family together to split the marathon distance is just one way that the community of Leeds will come together on the 11th May.

“The iconic event within an event is making its way to Leeds – but with a twist.
Our first relay of its kind in Leeds, the event will celebrate the legendary Rob Burrow bringing 77 teams made up of 7 team-mates to complete the full marathon. Whether your team is made up of family, friends, or colleagues, this is a great opportunity to come together and RUN FOR ROB.
Each team-mate will run a set distance before passing the ‘metaphorical rugby ball’ to the next team-mate, aiming to cross the finish line in the quickest combined the time and be crowned champions.
If you’ve always wanted to run a marathon but weren’t sure you could complete the distance alone, then this might be the answer. Accessible to all, distances within the relay vary, making the run both fun and a great way to fundraise.”
