A fantastic flat fast route.

You all loved this event when it was a temporary replacement for the Rhyl 10K in 2023, so we've made it permanent and added a 5K to the mix, this event has such a great atmosphere.

*2024 *Please note! make sure you enter 6 weeks before race day - LATE ENTRIES will not get a medal and Tech Tshirt, you can still register to run though, same price and your medal/tshirt cost will go to charity.

There is far too much waste due to us having to guess merchandise quantities way before race day.
