Borrowby Show 5K

About the Event

Nestled within the rich agricultural heritage of North Yorkshire, the Borrowby Show has been celebrating rural life since 1947. This year's show includes the third annual running race at Hillside Rural Activity Park, located just off the A19 north of Thirsk. The event offers a scenic backdrop with rolling fields and vibrant displays that highlight the area’s agricultural traditions.
The race begins and concludes in the main ring, where participants will be treated to an energizing start line and finish line experience complete with prizes for the top three male and female runners. Registration is open both online and on-site at Lets Run, North Yorkshire's premier running shop, which continues its sponsorship of this event.
In addition to the race, attendees can enjoy full access to the Borrowby Show as part of their entry fee, typically priced at £8. The show offers a day filled with agricultural exhibits, horticultural displays, and equestrian events that are sure to entertain family members and friends alike.
Whether you're an avid runner or simply there to support your fellow racers, this event promises an engaging mix of competition and community spirit set against the picturesque backdrop of rural Yorkshire.
