All 17 places on the new look Otley Run in Leeds as famous bar crawl adds two new destinations on route

As if the challenge of completing the Otley Run wasn't hard enough, the famous Leeds bar crawl has gone and added an extra two new destinations to the route.

The official body behind the bar crawl, which stretches two-and-a-half-miles from Far Headingley and into Leeds city centre, has put the total number of stops on the route to 17.

The two new locations are Taylor’s Sports Bar & Grill and Leeds University Union.

The bar crawl has been a staple of student life in the city for many a year. It has become so well known that even non-students have begun arriving from across the country dressed as pirates, Vikings, golfers and cartoon characters to take on the boozy challenge.

The Otley Run has proved divisive for many though, with residents complaining about the drunken antics of those undertaking it.

Bar staff have previously defended the runners to the YEP though, saying that those taking part are in good spirits and that those causing trouble are in the minority.
