Entries for the 14th McCain Yorkshire Coast 10k will open on Thursday with entries for the fun runs and 5K event available now.
The 2023 event which is organised by Scarborough Athletic Club will take place on Sunday October 15th and will feature the traditional 10k run and the fun runs.
For the first time this year's event will also include a 5k race primarily aimed at younger runners aged 11-14 but allowing anyone to enter.
The 5K will be a step up from the fun runs, it will be a chip timed run meaning competitors will be racing competitively. It will be an England Athletics approved event offering prizes for age groups 11/12 and 13/14.
The 5k will follow the same route as the 10k but with an earlier turn off. There are 250 places available for the 5K run which will take place around the South and North bays of Scarborough starting at the iconic Spa building and will route through the Open-Air Theatre to the Sea Life Center.
Entries for the 5k event and the fun runs are open now. The 5k race is free for 11-14 year olds, the entry fee for anyone aged 15 or over is £10.
Entries for the 10K run will open on Thursday June 1st, there are 2,200 places available for this year's race. Places are expected to sell out in a matter of days.
