Annual Awards

2025

Our 2025 Annual Awards Evening was a fantastic, well‑attended celebration of everything that makes the South Leeds Lakers Running Club so special – our members.

It was wonderful to see so many people come together to recognise achievements, dedication, and the passion that runs throughout our club. A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to vote, helping make the awards truly meaningful & representative of our community.

We’d also like to give a special shout‑out to our amazing committee, who organised the event and provided the delicious food enjoyed on the night. So much work goes on behind the scenes to make occasions like this possible, & evenings like this remind us just how much that effort is appreciated.

Congratulations to the winners
