Route information
**This event has become a virtual challenge. Please contact support@letsdothis.com if you have any questions**
This event has been changed to a virtual challenge due to increased restrictions from the government and your MoRun venue. You may not be able to physically come together but you can still run for each other, you can still run as one as MoRunners throughout the month of November, you can still dress up and grow a Mo (or paint one on!) and still continue to support Movember.
The York MoRun takes place at the iconic location of York Racecourse. The course is flat and on a path, so normal running shoes are suitable. Off road running buggies are allowed, but the course is not suitable for wheelchairs. Please note that there are 2 road crossing on the route, so you must take good care.
