Dust off your running shoes because the Butetown Mile is back for another year. The unique annual Cardiff race, which is one of only three straight one-mile road races held worldwide, began in the 1980s as a way of bringing the community together.
However, by the 1990s the event sadly lost its momentum and the number of participants declined. Thankfully in 2013 it was revived and in the following years it's seen runners of all abilities work up a sweat.
Though it started as a community event, today the race sees participants from all across Cardiff. There's not long to go now before the big day, which will mark the 10-year anniversary of the re-booted race. Here is everything you need to know about the 2023 Butetown Mile.
