What a night! The opening race of the AbeRAStwyth 5K Summer Series saw over 170 runners take part across the two races – with a fast and flat course around Blaendolau and an atmosphere to match. From first-timers to seasoned club runners, the energy on and off the course was brilliant.
We were proud to welcome runners from the Aberystwyth area and from further afield, with a great mix of clubs and individuals all contributing to a memorable evening of racing.
The event began with our free kids’ race, bringing energy and excitement to Park Avenue. Well done to all the young runners who gave it their all – the future is bright!
With perfect conditions and support all along the route, it was no surprise to see personal bests flying in across the board. A huge congratulations to everyone who took part and especially to our top three male and female finishers.
Full results are attached below. Kids’ race results will hopefully be up by tonig
Our group warm-up led by Aberystwyth Social Running Club was a great success and helped set the tone from the very start.
None of this would have been possible without the brilliant people behind the scenes. A massive thank you to our volunteers, marshals, and supporters. Special thanks also to Emma Palfrey and Ysgol Llanidloes for the unique prizes that added something special to the night.
Next Race:
Join us again on Wednesday 30th July for Race 2 of the series. Whether you're chasing a PB, running with friends, or just soaking in the atmosphere – we’d love to see you there.
And don’t forget: If you ran this week, you’re entitled to a free sauna session at AberPoeth between 7–9pm tomorrow Friday 27 June). Perfect recovery after race night!
Thanks again – see you on the 30th!
