The Chevin Chase is a traditional Boxing Day race organised by Airecentre Pacers, starting and finishing in Guiseley, West Yorkshire. The event follows a scenic 7 mile circuit around Otley Chevin, attracting club runners, recreational athletes and festive fancy dress enthusiasts for one of the area's best known Christmas races.
The hilly course combines roads with woodland trails and uneven off road sections, taking runners through the varied landscape of Otley Chevin. Steep climbs and descents provide a demanding challenge, while winter conditions can make the trails muddy underfoot. The mixture of terrain and elevation makes this a rewarding race for runners seeking something different from a conventional road event.
The Chevin Chase has a long history in the local running community, with a large field of participants and plenty of support along the route. The race features chip timing and prizes across overall and age categories, while finishers can choose between a technical running shirt and having a tree planted. Proceeds support local charities and community organisations.
