Thousands of athletes from across Swansea and beyond are reaching for their trainers and gearing up for Wales' biggest summer-time half marathon as the Swansea Half Marathon returns this Sunday, June 11.
This year's run will start underneath the golden Copr Bay bridge, located outside Swansea Arena on Oystermouth Road, and will take runners and wheelchair racers on a fantastic route around the city with beautiful views of Swansea Bay to enjoy on the way. The 13.1 mile route has been designed to "showcase spectacular Swansea Bay" whilst remaining predominantly flat, organisers say.
This year's race has been organised by Swansea-based events company Front Runner Events who recently managed the highly successful Gorseinon 10k race and Family 2k Run, with the support of dedicated staff and volunteer "race makers."
