TRAIL SERIES WEEKEND
RUNNERS are being encouraged to take part in a trail series for their local hospice.
Over the weekend of March 11, St David’s Hospice will be holding three trail events across Snowdonia in a bid to raise funds for local end of life care.
The Snowdonia Trail Series is a bespoke running and walking event open to all with routes immersed in stunning local landscape.
The first trail event is a 10km night run around Llanberis’ Llyn Padarn on Friday 11 March (7pm), followed by a 10am start in the picturesque Betws y Coed (10km), with the finale on Sunday 13 March to the stunning Aber Falls (7km) which follows the North Wales Coastal path.
It is hoped the events will raise much needed funds for the local charity which provides hospice care to adult patients and their families living with life limiting illnesses in Conwy, Gwynedd and Anglesey.
St David’s Hospice Events Coordinator, Rhian Jacobs said: “In 2020, we were able to hold the first of our Snowdonia Trail Series in Aber before the pandemic took hold postponing the other two. Now we hope to see the series return – this year with a difference all events will be the same weekend.
“You can choose to walk or run and how many you want to take part in. It’s a personal challenge that you can set the level of and enjoy at your on pace!”
All participants must be over the age of 16. Registration for
walkers is £16 per event, which includes a medal and £22 runners, which includes chip timing and a medal.
Alternatively, you can take part in all three events for a reduced entry fee: £39 (walkers) £49 (runners).
Sponsorship is optional. For more information or to register, please visit the St David’s Hospice website https:// register.enthuse.com/ps/event/ Snowdoniatrailseries or email rhian.jacobs@stdavidshospice. org.uk.
