The popular race is a firm favourite on the Welsh running calendar, boasting one of the flattest marathon courses in Europe. Nearly 70% of all finishers have claimed a PB on a route that offers iconic landmarks, including the city’s historic Castle, traditional Victorian Market, Transporter Bridge, modern riverfront development and International Sports Village. Marathon and half marathon races also take in the stunning scenery of the Gwent Levels – with its coastal wildlife and picturesque medieval villages.
