Clwb Run Wales Bag Drop

If you are planning on using the Bag Drop we politely ask that you only bring one small back pack or gym bag containing race day essentials. Please do not leave anything valuable (or illegal!) in your bag.  Whilst the Run Wales stand will be attended at all times, we are providing this service to Clwb Run Wales members in good faith and cannot be held responsible for items going missing.  

Please pre-book using this form if you would like to use the exclusive Clwb Run Wales Bag Drop so that we know we can accommodate you!

Please leave plenty of time to drop your bag before the race start – you can do so from 08:00. Please ensure that you have collected your bag by 15:00.

You will need your Cardiff Half Marathon bib to collect your bag!
