Event overview

but you can also do your bit for charity as we are raising money for local dog rehoming centres! There are so many underfunded local dog rehoming centres which help rescue and rehome thousands of dogs every year, here at Saturn we all love dogs with most of us owning at least one (or four in Charlotte and George's case!!) so what better charities to raise some much needed funds for! A Β£2.00 surcharge will be added to the cost of every race and 100% of this additional charge will go to local rehoming charities. All distances will also have an optional Β£3.00 add on which you can pay and you will receive a super cute pin for your generosity which can be pinned onto your ribbon medal, Saturn will then match every Β£3.00 donation, so for every race entered with the pin option selected, local rehoming centres will receive Β£6.00! Even if you decide to go for the entry only option, 10% of all profits from the race will be donated to these charities by Saturn so you will still be doing your bit for charity! All abilities are welcome at our super-inclusive events and we also welcome walkers too.

This event is part of The Dashing Dog Charity Run - Wales.

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.
