Beaumaris Run Fest Weekend 13th/14th September

Over 160 children aged 3 - 12 years old took part in the races inside Beaumaris Castle on a dry sunny (almost!) afternoon. On the Sunday the rain stayed away and the 10K race was completed by 169 runners and the challenging hilly half-marathon by 57.

The feedback from the runners, their supporters, and everyone involved has been very positive and we are already planning for next year. Runners of all abilities are very welcome and, if you want to take part in the event in 2026, look out for the details, which will be published soon.

The Run Fest is a “not for profit” event and is organised by the Beaumaris Town Road Runners, Môn Actif and Canolfan Hamdden Beaumaris. Money raised from the event will go towards local good causes and full details will be published once the total made from the event has been finalised.

A total of over £1,000 from the 2024 event was presented to our local schools at the event this year (see photos!).

The organising team, however, couldn’t put on the event without a massive amount of support from everyone involved. Special thanks go to Mat and Mel of Neptunes Fish and Chips, our principal sponsor, every volunteer involved, Beaumaris Town Council, all the staff in Beaumaris Castle, CADW, staff from Beaumaris Health Centre for providing First Aid cover, TDL Events who provided the timing, Sir Richard Williams-Bulkeley and the Baron Hill Estate staff, Jayne, our Race Director from Marathon Eryri, Carwyn Jones, Welsh Athletics, Steve Edwards, Phil Hen, Ynys Môn County Council, Spar, ABC Powermarine, Asda, Castle Court Hotel, Coed Môn, Go Design, Griffiths Construction, HPB Henllys, Llangoed Young Farmers, Menai Straits Heritage Sailing, Sunbelt Rentals, Tescos, Beaumaris/Llandegfan/Llangoed Primary Schools and everyone we have missed out, for their help in making the weekend possible and so memorable.

Penwythnos Gŵyl Rhedeg Biwmares 13eg/14eg Medi

Cymerodd dros 160 o blant 3 - 12 oed ran yn y rasys y tu mewn i Gastell Biwmares ar brynhawn heulog sych (bron!). Ar ddydd Sul fe arhosodd y glaw i ffwrdd a chwblhawyd y ras 10K gan 169 o redwyr a'r hanner marathon heriol fryniog gan 57.

Mae'r adborth gan y rhedwyr, eu cefnogwyr a phawb sy'n cymryd rhan wedi bod yn gadarnhaol iawn ac rydym eisoes yn cynllunio ar gyfer y flwyddyn nesaf. Mae croeso mawr i redwyr o bob gallu ac, os hoffech gymryd rhan yn y digwyddiad yn 2026, cadwch lygad am y manylion, a gyhoeddir yn fuan.

Cafodd cyfanswm o dros £1,000 o’r digwyddiad yn 2024 ei gyflwyno i’n hysgolion lleol yn y digwyddiad eleni (gweler lluniau!).

Mae'r Ŵyl Rhedeg yn ddigwyddiad "nid er elw" ac fe'i trefnir gan Rhedwyr Ffordd Tref Biwmares, Môn Actif a Chanolfan Hamdden Biwmares. Bydd yr arian a godir o'r digwyddiad yn mynd tuag at achosion da lleol a bydd manylion llawn yn cael eu cyhoeddi unwaith y bydd y cyfanswm a wnaed o'r digwyddiad wedi'i gwblhau.

Fodd bynnag, ni allai'r trefnwyr gynnal y digwyddiad heb gefnogaeth enfawr gan bawb a gymerodd ran. Diolch yn arbennig i Mat a Mel o Neptunes Fish and Chips, ein prif noddwr,
