The Yorkshire Run for WaterAid is a scenic 5K and 10K running event at Swinsty Reservoir in the Washburn Valley, near Harrogate. Set on the southern edge of the Nidderdale landscape, the routes take runners around the reservoir while raising funds to support WaterAid's work providing access to clean water.

Runners can choose an approximately 5K or 10K route, following predominantly accessible reservoir paths with some road sections and short stretches of flat dirt track. The course is mainly flat apart from one moderate hill, creating good conditions for runners looking to maintain a quicker pace while enjoying the waterside surroundings.

The event is held under a UK Athletics licence, with results eligible for publication on Power of 10. Its combination of reservoir scenery, approachable mixed terrain and charitable purpose makes it suitable for club athletes, recreational runners and those taking on the distance in support of WaterAid.
