Festive 10K

· Cardiff, United KingdomUpcoming

Festive 10K is a 10 km road and path race held in Cardiff, United Kingdom, in December. Race headquarters is the Scout Hall in Pontcanna Fields, and the start and finish sit a short walk of roughly 400 metres from it.

The route begins near the stables and follows the Spine Road towards the town before turning onto a cross path to Blackweir Bridge. From there it joins the river path to Millennium Bridge, crosses over and heads on towards the College of Music and Drama. It passes the parkrun area and reaches a turning point at an underpass of the A48, then retraces the same line back along the Spine Road to the finish.

The surface mixes tarmac with riverside paths, and results are taken by chip timing. Tea, coffee and cake are served to finishers afterwards.
