Conwy was the first half marathon that Sarah and I ever ran, back in 2013. It has continued to prove a favourite with Sarah ever since (and it would be for me too if my foot was up to it). This would be the sixth time Sarah has participated in the Conwy half marathon, having previously taken part in 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018. Yes, it has become an annual ritual! As mentioned, my problematic foot doesn’t hold up long…

A couple of years later, we ran our half marathon PB here when completing the 2015 version. Unfortunately, since then we have struggled with injuries and fitness. Last year, for example, although we had entered, following injury we weren’t ready and ended up volunteering instead (which was great in its own way!) This was the 10th anniversary of the event,…
Sunday 22nd March was the 2015 Wilmslow Half Marathon. It is not an event that we have not done before. The start was on Kings Road near the Wilmslow Rugby Club at 10:30.

As the event was being chip timed, there were sign posts along Kings road showing expected finish times, up to the 2 hour mark. We started by this sign as we were hoping…
As you may be aware that whilst most of our posts are cycling related Sarah and I also like to do a bit of running too. We don’t publish too many posts since most of our running is fairly mundane – and its not easy to take photos when running! However we have a few events coming up throughout the year and thought you might be interested in our running schedule for 2015. Sunday 8th March – Trafford 10k This popular event is…
Sunday 24th November was the 2013 Conwy Half Marathon which is organised by Run Wales. We arrived in Conwy just before 10 am and had a short walk along the quayside. It wasn’t too busy. There was an important visit to L’s Coffee and Book Shop for coffee and lovely cake! Feeling suitably refreshed, we went back to the car and got ourselves ready.
