The Elan Valley 10 Mile Road Race is a scenic and challenging event organised by Rhayader Running Club in the heart of Mid Wales. Starting near the Elan Valley Visitor Centre, the race follows a 10 mile loop through the valley and surrounding countryside, with reservoirs, wooded hillsides and sweeping rural views forming the backdrop.
The road course is undulating, with a succession of climbs and descents providing a testing run over the 10 miles. There are two water stations and supporting marshals around the route, with a three hour cut off. The roads remain open to traffic during the event, and chip timing is used to provide accurate results.
For runners looking for a 10 mile road race in Wales, the EV10 pairs a challenging course with the dramatic scenery of the Elan Valley near Rhayader. Its rolling profile makes it a rewarding autumn road race for runners wanting something more demanding than a flat 10 miler, while the limited field of 200 gives the event a smaller, club organised feel.
