Abergele 5K & 10K
The event offers coastal road races on the Pensarn promenade in Abergele, North Wales, with organised options over the following distances:
- 5K: totally flat route.
- 10K: mostly flat with a short, sharp incline at the turning point.
- Double: 5K and 10K on the same day with a bonus medal for completing both.
The race starts and finishes on the promenade next to the race headquarters. Race HQ handles number and chip collection and is located beside the start/finish. Free parking is available adjacent to the promenade. Public toilets and additional portaloos are provided; there are no dedicated changing facilities.
Drink stations are placed at approximately every three miles and at the finish; runners who need extra water are advised to bring a personal bottle. First aid cover is provided by a professional medical team with stations at the start, finish and on course; runners should complete medical history details on the back of their race number. Baggage may be left in the designated area but valuables are not the organisers' responsibility.
Finishers receive a technical T-shirt and a bespoke medal. Prizes are awarded for male and female 1st–3rd overall and 1st in each age category. There are no road closures for the event. Headphones are not permitted except bone-conducting types in line with UK Athletics rules. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
