Llandudno Half Marathon & 10 Mile

Welcome to the Llandudno Half Marathon, an exhilarating run through one of Wales' most picturesque seaside towns. Set against the backdrop of the Great Orme and Little Orme headlands, this race offers runners stunning views and a charming coastal atmosphere.
The event kicks off on the iconic promenade opposite Venue Cymru at 10am, with participants setting out along Llandudno's scenic waterfront before heading towards Rhos-on-Sea. The route then retraces its path back to the starting point via the Victorian pier, offering runners a mix of flat terrain and a challenging climb up "Little Orme," a smaller but no less daunting sibling to Conwy’s Great Orme hill.
Race day amenities are top-notch with warm-up facilities inside Venue Cymru complete with tea, coffee, and snacks. The town's rich history and elegant architecture provide the perfect backdrop for this event, making it an ideal destination not just for runners but also for those looking to explore Llandudno’s charming attractions and accommodations.
Participants will receive a bespoke medal and technical t-shirt upon crossing the finish line, along with opportunities to pick up race day merchandise or past season's stock from the jumble sale. The event promises robust support systems including drink stations every three miles, portable toilets strategically placed throughout the course, and first aid assistance provided by professional medical teams.
Safety is a priority during this half marathon; runners are reminded of UK Athletics regulations regarding headphones and must adhere to cut-off times designed for road closures and traffic management. Runners who do not meet these time limits will be directed to run on pavements as pedestrians while still enjoying the scenic route.
With its blend of historical charm, natural beauty, and competitive spirit, the Llandudno Half Marathon is a can’t-miss event that celebrates both athletic achievement and the unique allure of this Welsh resort town.
