Calling all runners over the age of 17… Are you ready to clock up the miles, enjoy the beautiful city of Cardiff and set yourself a challenge to raise money to support families in Wales caring for a disabled or seriously ill child?

Take part in the Cardiff Half Marathon 2025
The route
The route takes runners past the Cardiff’s most iconic landmarks with beautiful scenery and historic buildings.
The race starts outside Cardiff Castle. Runners then head down past the Principality and Cardiff City stadiums on the way to Penarth. They take in the glorious Penarth Marina before crossing the barrage and heading to Cardiff Bay. Runners run right through the heart of the bay taking in the Norwegian Church and Wales Millennium Centre.
Finally, the course heads towards the north of the city and runners will complete a loop of the beautiful Roath Park Lake before the grandstand finish in the heart of the city at the civic centre.
The predominately flat route makes it ideal for all!
