Big Social Run Cardiff Summer run

It's time to announce that the next Big Social Run on the morning of 14th July will be around the Taff Trail up to Castle Coch, and back via the Long Wood Nature reserve. The route is roughly 5 1/2 miles

As ever this is all about being social - trotting along with like minded runners, having a chat and a laugh, and in this instance, experiencing the lovely Taff Trail up to Castedd Coch and back.

Running groups will be based on loosely on running speed but it's not paced - just a gentle run through the woods, and there should be a group suitable for all speeds. There will be leaders and backmarkers for all groups too, so no one need fear getting lost or left behind.

The Whitchurch Rugby Sports and Social Club will be hosting the group you'll be able to leave bags, use the toilet/changing facilities, and buy drinks and snacks after the run. There is also free parking available. Directions can be found on the clubs website - please see link.

In addition, the venue does a good Sunday lunch (booking required) and I'll put info up about that shortly.

Start time to be confirmed once tickets go on sale via Eventbrite on Saturday, 29 June. Please follow links in the Big Social Run Cardiff facebook page in the next few days to sign up for the run.

In the meantime, sign up here so we can have some idea of numbers coming from GoodGym, to organise transport and possibly book meals afterwards at the club, if anyone's interested.
