Pendine Sands Races

Website Registration

The Pendine Sands Races, held at Pendine Sands beach in Wales, offer a unique running experience on firm sand famously used for land speed records. Scheduled for April 5, 2026, the event features multiple distances: 5k, 10k, Half Marathon, Marathon, and a new Ultra of 32.8 miles. All races follow the same well-marked out-and-back course along the beach, with distances achieved by completing multiple laps.

The firm sand surface is ideal for running, including barefoot. The event is cup-free, requiring runners to bring reusable cups for water stations. Finishers receive bespoke medals, and trophies are awarded to category winners.

The race is governed by tide times, ensuring safety and optimal conditions. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
