2022 will see the fortieth Anniversary of the Tydfilians Roman Run, making it one of the longest standing races in the country. As you are aware all proceeds of this race are donated to the Mayor of Merthyr Tydfil’s Appeal.
All entries were automatically deferred to the 2022 event.
The facility to transfer your entry to another runner will still be available when 2022 registration opens on Wednesday 23rd March 2022 at 6PM. An automated email will be sent to all currently registered athletes advising of the process to follow.
Note that we will be making a change to the course due to the A465 Heads of the Valleys roadworks, further details to be advised when confirmed.
