First 10k since my last race in September and first easy pace since July and not what I was expecting, pace down 2 min/km and hr up 20 bpm. Definitely a lot to improve on #running #10krun #corosrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Kicking off my Sunday with a 10km run at Bridge to Brisbane, then heading straight to volunteer at the vibrant Polish Festival / Polska Wiosna on Sept 14! https://www.facebook.com/events/702712979289980/ #BridgeToBrisbane #PolishFestival #PolskaWiosna #CommunityVibes #BrisbaneEvents #BrisbaneVibes #Brisbane #Community #CommunityInvolvement #Volunteer #10kRun #Culture #PolishCulture #Volunteering #VolunteerVibes #festival #VolunteerLife #CulturalCelebration #CulturalFestival

Record-breaking Porthcawl 10K returns this Sunday with thousands set to race

Organised by Run 4 Wales and sponsored by Welsh broadband provider Ogi, the race promises to be the biggest and most vibrant edition yet.

Starting from the Eastern Promenade and finishing near Cosy Corner on the Esplanade, the 10K course offers runners a breathtaking tour of Porthcawl’s coastal gems. Participants will pass iconic locations including Rest Bay, Trecco Bay, Coney Bay, the Grand Pavilion, and the historic Porthcawl Lighthouse. The route has been carefully designed to minimise disruption to residents and businesses, with most road closures in place for only a short duration

Beyond the main race, the event features a full day of family-friendly activities. The Ogi Jogi Junior Races include a Toddler Dash, a Future Challengers Mile for young athletes, and a Family Fun Run. These events aim to inspire the next generation of runners and foster a community spirit that extends beyond the finish line.

Race Director Steve Brace, a double Olympic marathoner and Bridgend native, expressed excitement about the event’s growth:

“We’re really looking forward to returning to Porthcawl for the Brecon Carreg Porthcawl 10K. This will be our biggest event yet, and we expect a fantastic atmosphere around the course and at the finish line.”

Cllr Neelo Farr, Cabinet Member for Economic Development, Regeneration and Housing, echoed the sentiment, highlighting the event’s impact on local tourism:

“The Porthcawl 10K continues to grow year on year. It’s fantastic to see how wide-ranging this event is, with opportunities for people of all ages to get involved. It showcases Porthcawl as a high-quality tourism destination.”

To ensure a smooth race day, residents and visitors are advised to plan ahead. The Eastern Promenade will be closed from 5am on Saturday, 5 July, until 4pm on Sunday. Bus routes including the X2, 63, and Stagecoach 172 will be diverted. Attendees are encouraged to pre-book parking via the official event website, as drop-offs without a booking will not be permitted.

Finishers of the 10K will receive a commemorative medal and a vibrant yellow event t-shirt inspired by Porthcawl’s surfing culture. The medal is part of the Run 4 Wales 2025 10K Series collection, making it a coveted keepsake for participants

With light rain showers expected and breezy coastal winds, runners are advised to dress appropriately and prepare for changing conditions. Despite the forecast, the town is still buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be a memorable day of racing and community celebration.

Statt einem #longrun wurde es heute ein #10krun, da ich Angst hatte, mitten auf einem Feld zu stehen falls ein Gewitter oder ein Regenschauer plötzlich aufzieht.

Endlich eine neue #PR auf #10km ! Ob das an den neuen Schuhen liegt? Wer weiß 🤝🏻

Der Wind war auch mal wieder bodenlos 🌪..genauso wie meine Kopfhörer, die nach 8 km leer waren 🫠

Nun gibt es ein richtig geiles #Frühstück und ein gutes #Buch und der Rest des #Sonntags wird auf der Couch verbracht.

#SilentSunday #Sundayrun #cozysunday

J’ai amélioré mon temps de manière substantielle dans ma course de 10k hier, presque 3 minutes de moins. Même parcours accidenté que mon dernier 10k (je ne sais pas pourquoi le dénivelé est un peu différent). Aurais-je eu un peu trop d’énergie à évacuer ?

#running #course #10k #10krun

Un autre 10k ce dimanche avec une petite amélioration par rapport il y a une semaine : un rien plus long, un peu plus de dénivelé et un peu plus vite. Presque le même parcours.

Warrington 10k this morning 🔥🔥
A much better result than expected 👊👊 was hoping for a sub 60 minutes but to go sub 55 with the lack of training for the past 2 months, I’m well pleased with 54:23 #running #10krunning #10krun #10krace #adidasrunning #newbalancefuelcell #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity #oldguysrule

It’s always a pleasure to run my hometown and today was no exception. Wanted to keep in hr zone 2 for this 10k run but did allow to push towards aerobic threshold. Pace down than a couple of months ago so something to focus on in the future #sundayrun #10krun #easyrunning #adidasrunning #therunningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

Zone 1/2 10k run today, didn’t want to push the pace as I’ve seemed to have developed runner’s knee which has been hindering any progress lately so just going out for a few tentative runs every now and then #running #easyrunning #10krun #10krunning #adidasrunning #therunningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

A busy few days but still managed a couple of runs. Yesterday 60 minutes aerobic threshold with heart rate bordering zones 2 & 3 and today a tougher tempo session with 2x3k + 2x1500m #running #easyrunning #temporunning #10krun #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Had to squeeze in todays run earlier than normal as had a few things planned for later in the day. 60 minutes total with 30 at tempo pace and keeping heart rate in zone 3 which was the plan for today #running #temporunning #adidasrunning #10krun #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

First run as an oldie 👊 60 today so started the celebrations with a 10k including a 25 minute threshold session sandwiched in the middle. Made sure I kept to the script and within the zones allocated for today’s run so pace that bit slower than it would have been if a little bit cooler #running #10krun #thresholdrun #birthdayrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Went out for my usual hour around lunchtime. A slight change to the plan today, instead of easing back for the last 10 minutes, decided to run that at half marathon pace. #running #easyrunning #60minuterun #10krun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

45 minute progression run today, working through hr zones 1-5 allowing about 15 minutes in each and making sure heart rate didn’t go above super threshold for the workout. Then a few static stretches before finishing off with a 15 minute cool down jog home #running #10krun #thresholdrun #progressionrun #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Congratulations to everyone completing the #WomensMiniMarathon today! It was a really hot day to be out running, but you all crushed it! Including my amazing wife, who was running in aid of the #DSPCA !

I did it 🥳🎉!

First 10k and my PB so far. My net time was 01:02:12, i.e. a pace of 6'13"/km
My best training time so far has been 6'25"/km in 9 km, so I'm satisfied with my performance!

People cheering while passing by is a great motivational boost.
