The Run Wales Social Running Celebration Relay<\/a> continued this week, with the baton passing from Moti Albany Road Run Club<\/a> to RUNNewport<\/a> at Newport parkrun<\/a>. As this was the last Saturday of the month, we were also able to celebrate the second meeting of the new Newport 5k Your Way<\/a> group, which encourages exercise among those affected by cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Celebration relay provides all Run Wales registered groups<\/a> with a tremendous opportunity to showcase their group, sharing information about their activities and encouraging more people to participate in social running outside of their regular weekly parkrun.  We are encouraging groups to support their local parkrun by offering to volunteer as well as run, jog or walk at the relay events.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Saturday, 29th April, the baton continued on its journey between social running groups across Wales. Helen McCarthy, a member of Moti Albany Road Run Club<\/a>, passed the baton to Jeff Ellaway, Sarah Buckley and Andrew James, representing RUNNewport<\/a>, at Newport parkrun<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chris Davies, parkrun<\/a> Ambassador for Wales, did the honours by announcing the event before the parkrun and kindly also took some photos before the race briefing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Jeff, Sarah and Andrew then ran the 5K at Tredegar House<\/a>, a lovely trail route mostly around the picturesque lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RUNNewport<\/a> is a thriving social running group which welcomes everyone who enjoys running and aims to support them to reach their running goals. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The group provides free, friendly coaching and accessible sessions twice every week, using the city as their training ground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

RUNNewport<\/a> is delighted to be involved in this event across Wales and is looking forward enthusiastically to their ‘volunteer take-over’ event in support of the relay at Riverfront parkrun<\/a> next Saturday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of their participation in the Run Wales relay, one of the group members said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It\u2019s exciting to be part of the running community throughout Wales and we hope to meet many more runners in parkruns and races in the future.<\/em>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was lovely to that the Run Wales Celebration Relay coincided with the second Newport 5k Your Way<\/a> parkrun event. Congratulations to you all on this fabulous new group, which supports and encourages anyone affected by cancer to exercise. The Newport group meet at Newport parkrun<\/a> on the last Saturday of every month by the ramp into the brewhouse cafe from 8.45.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Run Wales<\/a> team would love to hear from any other social running groups in the area or anyone who is interested in establishing a new group<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
