Runners will take to the streets of Cardiff this weekend as the Cardiff Half Marathon returns to its usual October spot, just six months after the last event in March. The 2022 Cardiff Half Marathon sold out earlier this summer, three and a half months after entries first went on sale.
The Cardiff Half Marathon kicks off at 10am and the sold-out event will see 25,000 runners race across the city- which includes a record number of runners from outside Wales, both from overseas and across the UK. They will start outside Cardiff Castle before following a 13-mile route, showcasing the city's famous landmarks. Road closures will be in place across the city on race day.
The event is Wales’ largest multi-charity fundraising event, with more than £3 million raised for good causes each year. The race is on track to generate its £20 millionth in fundraising this year, with ‘the race to £20 million’ campaign urging the public to get behind the push to reach this huge milestone.
