Event overview

Taking place entirely of forestry roads, this is a great introduction to trail running! This is a non-technical but fast and hilly race! Take on the classic 8 mile route (can you beat the 1 hour mark?!), or opt for the shorter 8k - either way, you'll find this an interesting and challenging race! We reverse the route each year, and 2024 is anticlockwise! As a low-cost event there are no medals or trophies, but there will be prizes for category winners. This year we are raising money for Aberdyfi Search and Rescue Team, a dedicated team of volunteers who provide a 365-day service covering remote areas in south Snowdonia and mid-Wales. They are funded completely by charitable donations so please contribute if you can!

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
