Ras Dewi Sant | Full Marathon

Our flagship running event is Ras Dewi Sant which is based in St Davids and around the Pembrokeshire coast National park. 10K - The route offers a mixture of Road and Coast Path all finished off with the iconic Cathedral Climb. It is an ideal run for those who like a faster run, want an introduction to Coast path running or just like the distance and a chance to admire the views. It is not an easy 10k and there are sections that will make you work hard, Like the other routes this is probably not a PB course, but it is certainly achievable for all to complete. Awards will be issued at the finish line once results are verified. Then cawl and refreshments will be served at event HQ. All 10k runners are welcome back.
