Whether guests are travelling from afar or within the Yorkshire region, we look forward to providing a warm and welcoming base for all those taking part.”
Siobhan Curtis, Communications Director at Run For All said, “We are delighted to reveal the Queens Hotel as the official hotel partner of the 2023 Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon. The hotel is one of Leeds most famous and beloved landmarks, and will act as an ideal base for those wishing to stay in the city centre.”
the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon, on Sunday 14 May, will honour Leeds Rhinos legend Rob Burrow MBE and help raise vital funds for the Leeds Hospitals Charity’s appeal to build the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease, as well as the MND Association.
Inspired by former Leeds Rhinos captain Kevin Sinfield OBE running challenges in support of his friend and team mate Burrow, event organisers are encouraging participants to ‘Run for a mate, with a mate’. In support of Rob and the whole MND community, Sinfield ran over 60km per day for seven days from Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh to Old Trafford in Manchester. Commenting on his recent challenge, Kevin said, “In my own mind, this is a run for a mate, with a mate.”
Run For All is committed to making this event inclusive for all and is encouraging those of all abilities to take part – whether they are an experienced runner or have never thought about doing an event like this before.
