The event is now such a global draw that spectators come from across the world to be part of the experience and to add their support. \nAs you head along University Road to the finish\, remember; it’s tradition to “do the Y” as you cross the line. Yorkshire\, Yorkshire\, Yorkshire! \nWhether you’re aiming to smash your PB or just looking to cross the finish line\, the Yorkshire Marathon is the perfect experience for beginners and experienced athletes alike.
