I'm not going to pretend February is nice, February is a bastard, The Billing is a bastard. In name and nature.
The child of two of the original Great Owl Running GPX Races from the lockdown era (The Billing and No Fly Zone). Starting at the Emmot Arms in Rawdon this brand new winter race heads up the Billing before heading through the top of Yeadon followed by a lap of the wonderful Leeds Bradford Airport perimiter fence and then returns via a second ascent of The Billing.
Come join us to celebrate the general awfulness of running in the middle of a British winter. Trail shoes please.

Medals and T-shirts are often a standard provision of race entry. But this can sometimes mean you take home extras you didn't really want (or leave them behind!)
To ensure you get exactly what you want, we now offer the option to add medal or t-shirt purchases to your entry order. This means we can minimise waste and keep down the cost of the standard entry for all.
If you fancy doing a good deed, you could also make a 'Trees not Tees' donation. This will pay for a tree to be planted...an ever-growing memento of your race day!
Please note optional extras are only available for a certain time before the race date. Entry on the day is available but extras will be limited to any excess stock for purchase.
Windproof / Waterproof Jacket All runners MUST carry a warm jacket / extra clothing suitable for the winter weather should you get yourself in trouble (Mandatory)
Water Container - Great Owl Running events are cupless, we provide water at refill stations but you must bring your own container.
