The CANUM

About this event

The CANUM takes runners through the trails around Newport, offering a challenging day out in the Welsh countryside. Set in early April, this event catches the landscape as spring begins to transform the hills and valleys. The routes wind through varied terrain typical of South Wales, mixing forest paths with open moorland. Newport's position between the Brecon Beacons and the coast means runners can expect some proper elevation and technical sections that reward sure-footedness. This is one for trail runners looking to test themselves on demanding Welsh terrain, where the weather can be as changeable as the landscape is beautiful.
