VENUE: PARC BRYN BACH

COURSE MAP: A COURSE MAP WILL FOLLOW HERE

EVENT DETAILS

A Welsh Road Relay Championships for Senior & Masters Athletes will take place in the Spring with a Championship for the Junior age-groups taking place in the Autumn each September.

It has become neccesary to split the events due to the numbers competing in the senior race, where it now requires an additional race in the programme.

The Spring date is thought to be a better fit for the Senior / Masters and the Autumn a better fit for the Junior age-groups.

RACE DESCRIPTION
The Welsh road Relay Championships offers competition for Welsh Clubs over 4 legs (seniors) and 3 legs (masters). Each relay race will start and finish alongside the lake and take in a loop around the lake and around the undulating loop of the golf course.

The event will also host Junior Races (2.6km) which will form the trial race for the Welsh Team competing at the 2026 London Mini Marathon. Selection policy to follow.
