Cardiff Half Marathon

Fast Running is your home for running & athletics news, training tips, nutrition, races, injury advice & much more.

A race on my list to run one day is the Coniston 14 which covers a beautiful route around Coniston water in the lake district. First place in the men’s competition went to Notts AC in a combined time of 3:56:56. Full results and team lists here. In the York 5k edition, the women ramped it up a notch with the top three all finishing in under 18 minutes. The men’s race was a tight one, with eight seconds separating the top three. The Midland Counties held their 12 and 6 Stage Road Relays at Sutton Coldfield. The squad was made up of Tom Graham-Marr, Alastair Marshall, Ben MacMillan, Hamish Hickey, Alistair Hay and Jamie Crowe. Full results to be added when we have them. Holding a previous best of 66:06, his time of 62:46 was a substantial upgrade. A high quality field had the FastRunning team watching the tracker for the Cardiff Half Marathon on Sunday morning. Coventry Godiva Harriers topped the women/s table in 2:16:50 with fastest long leg going to Katie Holt (City Of Stoke – 29:03) and it was brilliant to see Gemma Steel of Charnwood returning to racing to take the fastest short leg in 17:17. The winning women’s team was Hannah Anderson, Rebecca Johnson, Grace Pow and Holly Page. They finished in a combined time of 1:46:39. Looking at the fastest overall on the long and short legs, all the gongs belong to Central AC, Fastest on the short were Tom Graham-Marr (15:04) and Morag Millar (16:59). On the long it was Jamie Crowe (28:46) and clubmate Jennifer Wetton (34:35). In the run-up to the men’s race there was plenty of chat about the double-debut from the Mahamed brothers, but it was Kadar Omar who took the lead by 20k and held on for the win.

A special thank you must go to our partners and sponsors for sticking with us through the challenges presented to us during the pandemic. "My aim was to test myself with the best athletes and take the win, so I’m happy to take the win and I really enjoyed the course," Omar said." I really enjoyed the atmosphere and support along the way, thanks to the Cardiff people, the organisers and my coach for training me for this Cardiff Half Marathon."I fled from my country when I was 13 because of the political situation and I ended up in a refugee camp with my uncle and brother. "The Commonwealth Games have been my dream from a really young age so hopefully I can get selected for that now. Cockram is now hoping to compete for Wales at the Birmingham Commonwealth Games later this year. It’s been my dream since I started running."
