Excitement is building as registrations officially open for the highly anticipated 2026 Bryn Meadows Caerphilly 10K and 2K Run. The event is scheduled to return on Sunday, May 10, promising to build upon the remarkable success of last year's completely sold-out occasion.
A Record-Breaking Legacy
Following a landmark year in 2025, where every single place was filled for the first time in the event's history, organisers are strongly encouraging participants to secure their spots without delay. The unprecedented demand last year has set a new benchmark, making early registration essential for anyone wishing to cross the start line in 2026.
An Inclusive Event for All
The Bryn Meadows Caerphilly 10K and 2K is meticulously designed to cater to a wide spectrum of participants. Whether you are an experienced runner aiming for a personal best time, a first-timer embarking on your running journey, or a family looking to enjoy the shorter 2K route together, this event offers a perfect opportunity for community engagement and personal achievement.
The Unmissable Race-Day Experience
Renowned for its vibrant, buzzing atmosphere and overwhelming community support, the event has firmly established itself as a standout fixture in the South Wales running calendar. The race will start and finish in the heart of Caerphilly town centre, providing runners with a memorable and scenic experience.
Participants can look forward to passing iconic local landmarks while being cheered on by enthusiastic crowds lining the entire route. This creates an electric, supportive atmosphere that energises runners from the very beginning to the triumphant finish line.
Reflecting Community Spirit and Growth
The continued expansion and popularity of the Bryn Meadows Caerphilly 10K and 2K Run clearly reflect the growing appetite for running and active community participation across the borough. It stands as a testament to the area's commitment to health, wellness, and communal spirit.
Councillor Chris Morgan, cabinet member for leisure, emphasised the event's success, stating: "The Bryn Meadows Caerphilly 10K and 2K continues to go from strength to strength. Selling out in 2025 was a huge milestone and shows just how popular the event has become."
He added: "We're encouraging people to register early for 2026 to avoid disappointment and be part of what promises to be another fantastic day."
