    Races in Brecons/ STh Wales

    Is there anywhere I can find details of races in the Brecon Beacons and South Wales? I've looked on the Welsh fell running website but I'm not a member

    Thanks

    Click on the link to upcoming races on the top left hand corner of the home page and you get the same information as you find in the printed race calendar. Somwhere on there you can also order a printed calendar if you'd prefer that, it is £2...

    We have some lovely races around us, what where you looking for and when?

    Ahhh, correct! They tend to post them up two months ahead or something. I will have a look at my calendar tonight, when at home, and give you an idea if you tell me what it is you are looking for?

    There is Brecon Beacons, a long one, usually mid August, and there are a few shorter ones. Machen on Bankholiday MOnday in August for exampl, that is about 10 kms...

    Many thanks for the help. I've got my eye on the long one in mid august, I was also interested in any shorter races upto 10 miles over summer weekends.

    Novice, most of the south Wales races are also listed in the FRA calendar.

    Perhaps I will have to get a copy of the WFRA calendar myself then.

    Novice,
    Get a WFRA calendar and support WFRA, it is the most friendly bunch of people you will ever come across.
    And don't forget the Black Mountains long race, 26th September.
