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.
Check out the full list of bars now featured on the bar crawl in our gallery below:
The next stop is The Box, a very popular venue with sports fans that becomes lively on game days. It’s also a boozer with a modern look and great outdoor seating area that is ideal for watching the other Otley Runners come and go. Address: 8 Otley Rd, Headingley, Leeds LS6 2AD Photo: Google
The Skyrack is a local landmark and just a quick walk from The Box. The venue has plenty of room both inside and outside and is a great place to grab a fish finger sandwich or burger as you approach the half way point. Address: 2-4 St Michael's Rd, Headingley, Leeds LS6 3AW Photo: Steve Riding
Another traditional pub on the run, The Original Oak has space both inside and outside to accommodate the Otley Runners who may be starting to tire and the cricket fans and regular punters who may not know what they've walked into. Address: 2 Otley Rd, Headingley, Leeds LS6 2DG Photo: Google
The short walks between previous pubs is done away with now, with the next trip being a walk or bus down Headingley Lane to The Hyde Park. It’s often a moment of truth for many on the run, with some taking the chance to slink off. Address: 2 Headingley Ln., Headingley, Leeds LS6 2AS Photo: Google
Now entering double figures, The Library is the tenth stop on the run and often has live music or DJs to soundtrack your night as you enter the final strait. Address: 229 Woodhouse Ln., Woodhouse, Leeds LS2 3AP Photo: Google
With its cosy feel, live music and wood-topped bars, The Pack Horse is one of the highlights of the Otley Run and is an ideal place to wind down as you brace yourself for the last few pubs. Address: 208 Woodhouse Ln., Woodhouse, Leeds LS2 9DX Photo: Mark Bickerdike
