This week marks the 6th anniversary since the launch of the JCP Swansea Half Marathon. The brainchild of local friends and runners Nick Francis and David Martin-Jewell who worked tirelessly to organise the inaugural half marathon for the city of Swansea back in 2014.

The team at Front Runner Events are pleased to announce that following the launch of their very first virtual event that took place during April, almost 800 runners took part. The Great Welsh races that includes a half and full marathon was planned to take place in the beautiful Pembrey Country Park but was postponed like hundreds of others around the UK due to the ongoing COVID19 pandemic.
