The Swansea University Swansea Half Marathon made its return on Sunday offering runners a scenic and fast-paced coastal course through Wales' second-largest city.
Starting at 9am from the Copr Bay Bridge near Swansea Arena the race featured a fully closed-road route open to both first-timers and seasoned runners.
The 13.1-mile course saw thousands of runners pass through Singleton Park, the historic Brangwyn Hall, and Swansea Castle ruins, before heading towards the National Waterfront Museum.
The route continued along the Swansea Bay coastline for five miles before looping back to the finish line at Swansea Arena.
Hundreds of the participants took the opportunity to run for various causes, sporting tops from and raising money for charities such as Cancer Research Wales, Crisis UK, Prostate Cymru, and Wales Air Ambulance.
This year's event also featured the popular Front Runner City 5 Miler, offering a shorter, more accessible race option.
