Organized by Run For All, the Clarion Corporate Challenge is a beloved tradition in Leeds, bringing teams together each year in a “race within a race” to be crowned Corporate Challenge Champions. Teams (minimum five members, aged 15+) run the 10.2 km course together, with their collective performance determining the winner. The challenge delivers a premium experience—teams receive personalized racing T‑shirts branded with their team name, logo, and optional charity logo; day-of hospitality with refreshments; goody bags; finisher medals and T‑shirts; and a digital pre-race team photo. Winning teams and the fastest male and female team members receive trophies, and participants gain PR exposure via Run For All’s media channels. Sponsored by Clarion since its inception in 2007, the Corporate Challenge is one of the region’s most enduring and popular corporate sporting events, drawing businesses, schools, running clubs, and more.
