The 10k start line in 2023

The annual Harmony Energy Run Harrogate 10k around Crimple Valley is set to return this year.

The event is the biggest event organised each year by running club Harrogate Harriers. It is once again sponsored by Harmony Energy, a Knaresborough-based renewable energy developer.

Last year, almost 1,000 runners participated in the event, which starts and finishes at the Harrogate Sports and Fitness Centre.

Crimple Valley, which the Yorkshire Agricultural Society closed to the public last year, will reopen for runners, who finish the course by running up the dreaded 'Crimple killer' for the final kilometre.

The 10k and junior fun run follow a route that is about 70% tarmac road. The rest is on footpaths, making it suitable for beginners and seasoned club runners alike.

Harrogate Harriers committee member Issie Row said:

“Last year was a brilliant success and we’re excited that this year will be an even bigger event filled with food, drink and music. We’re also bringing back bespoke medals to celebrate runners completing this great achievement.”

Race director Mark Seymour added:

“We are conscious that with the cost of living crisis, we need to make our event great value, which is why with the help of Harmony Energy we have kept our entry prices at the same level as last year, and indeed the year before!”


Peter Kavanagh, chief executive of Harmony Energy, said:

“It’s a delight supporting this brilliant local event. It’s our third  year sponsoring, and each year we’ve seen more people take part and we know it will be another great event come June."


The event is set to take place on June 30 and has a £19 entry fee (£17 for affiliated tunners) and £3 for the junior fun run. To sign up click here.
