A 10K race around Cardiff Bay
Set in the heart of Cardiff’s historic Bay, the Brecon Carreg Cardiff Bay Run is a flat, fast and friendly event for all ages and abilities.
The popular spring-time race, which attracts some of the UK’s top athletes, boasts a stunning 10km course around Cardiff Bay. The race incorporates the Welsh 10 Kilometre Championships.
The route takes in all of Cardiff Bay’s most iconic landmarks, starting and finishing in Roald Dahl Plass and passing the Wales Millennium Centre, Mermaid Quay, the Pierhead Building, Senedd, Porth Teigr and the Cardiff Bay Barrage.
It’s a perfect challenge for elite and club athletes as well as those looking to keep fit, raise money for charity or take on their first 10K!
With no pressure to set record times or run all the way around, whether you take part in the fun run or 10K, join in and put a spring in your step.
The Brecon Carreg Cardiff Bay Family Fun Run gives budding athletes and families the chance to absorb the race day atmosphere, with fancy dress very much encouraged.
