CF64 Winter Race
The CF64 Winter Race is an off-road event run entirely within Cosmeston Lakes Country Park in Penarth. The course is approximately 6.4 miles (10.3 km) and remains inside the park on mixed terrain, including trails, woodlands, meadows, marshy sections, some fast tarmac stretches and a number of hills. The route passes lakes and open countryside and follows a twisting, undulating layout.
The race is organised by Penarth and Dinas Runners and is licensed by Welsh Athletics (Licence No. TR-26-2). The event was established in 2018 with the aim of providing a low-cost, no-frills midwinter off-road race for the local running community.
Key event arrangements include marshals at main points, additional signage for unattended sections, mile markers, a centrally located first-aid station at race headquarters and a 4x4 rapid response vehicle for on-course emergencies. There is a cut-off time of 1 hour 30 minutes; competitors exceeding this time may not receive a result and may be asked to withdraw from later sections. Entrants must be at least 18 years old on race day. A Race Day Information Pack contains joining instructions, parking details, race rules and a course description and is available as a downloadable PDF. Nearby cafés include Willmore's, Dusty's and the Refresh café close to the car park. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
