Sunday 24th November 2024
PLEASE SEE THE FINAL RACE INFO PAGE.
Come and join us for a couple of great trail routes through the forest, at 5K and 10K distances, plus a 2K trail race for juniors over 10 years. All races start and finish at Nant BH Centre. There is some parking available at the Centre, with a larger car park in Llanrwst, and several smaller car parks shown on the map fairly close to the main Centre. Please car share from Llanrwst if possible.
There will be a compulsory kit requirement for the 5K and 10K route. The weather in November can be unpredictable, and the forest is quite exposed in places, so you will need to make sure you are experienced at running in these potentially more challenging conditions. It could be blowing a gale, horizontal rain, snowing, or even calm and sunny!! Who knows!
All race entries are through Fabian4, https://www.fabian4.co.uk/default.aspx?EventID=3818 with entries opening on Tuesday 24th September, and closing on Thursday 21st November Saturday 23rd November 10am.
