This is your last chance to post a time to qualify for selection for the Castles teams 2015. The run isn't a Trial, it is a 10 mile run that anyone from the Club can run, and it is also included in the Club Championships. It is there so that anyone who hasn't got a longer distance time in has the chance before the teams are considered.
The course is the Handicap 10 course that we have used the last 2 years, but it is a
mass start at 10am. You can turn up and
register between 9.30 and 9.45am at the Start, but if you could indicate below if you are interested it will give me an idea of numbers.
There will be a charge of £1 per runner.
Start at Llandaff Fields on the main path just up from the Oval. Run up through the park towards Western Ave., take right turn at the cross roads - this will take you past the playground and around to the car park. Keep right and pass through the car park and out onto Penhill (opposite the Half Way Pub), turn right and run up Penhill to the traffic lights and turn right - this will take you past Churchills (1 mile) and Howells School. At The Crescent turn right which will bring you out opposite the Rugby Club, continue along Western Ave and turn right onto the Spine Road in Pontcanna Fields - past the Stables. Turn left along the cross path (2 miles is just before this), and run towards Blackweir Bridge, turn right and follow the river passing the back of the SWALEC Stadium (3 miles). Turn left over the Millennium Bridge, when you reach the Bute Park side take the second path and run towards the College of Music and Drama (as if you were doing parkrun), continue around until you reach the cross roads, go straight across (4 miles is on the playing fields) and follow the path right the way to the parkrun Start/Finish. Just before Western Ave you will reach the grass triangle at the bottom of the steps - this is the 5 mile turning point, keep to the left and head towards the steps, then turn right and right ~ now retrace your steps exactly until you reach the Start/Finish in Llandaff Fields.
The results will then be out later in the afternoon.
If you are not running but can help out marshalling, then please let me know.
