01 March. A day full of children wearing black 'chimney' hats and shawls. Parades of leeks, daffodils, flags of Saint David and herds of red dragons - on flags of course. All in celebration of the patron saint of Wales, St David.

TBC A beautiful marathon that gives you the unique chance to cross a traffic-free Menai Bridge. Following the coastal path and past the formidable Beaumaris Castle before returning to the bridge. A great warm-up for the London marathon later in the year.
