First day of the YVAA Grand Prix Series with the Yorkshire Vets

Challenging? Absolutely! Worth it? You bet! We recently experienced this firsthand, and a huge thank you goes out to Holmfirth Harriers for once again hosting such a well-organised event.

What truly made the day special? The incredible buzz of the race itself, the superb social gathering afterwards, and of course, keeping the YVAA prize-giving tradition alive. It was fantastic to see every single Vale of York member who ran today come home with a prize! Talk about a great start to the Grand Prix series.

If you love off-road running, reside in Yorkshire, are over 35, and are looking for a fantastic blend of friendly competition, camaraderie, and a vibrant social scene, then the YVAA Grand Prix Series could be absolutely perfect for you!

We’d love for you to join us for the next race, which promises to be a flatter affair amidst the stunning scenery of Kirkstall Abbey on May 27th. Come and experience firsthand what makes the YVAA Grand Prix so special!

Find out more via the Yorkshire Veterans Athletics Association website or simply send Vale of York an email. We look forward to seeing you at the next YVAA event.
