Cardiff Half Marathon: 50 spots up for grabs for £10

The foundation, a not-for-profit social enterprise, invests its surpluses into grassroots sports and community projects. There are 50 spots available for those willing to raise £250 for the charity. Entry costs just £10, and participants will receive an exclusive team running vest if they raise £75 by August 8. Lowri Morgan, extreme endurance athlete, adventurer, and broadcaster, will lead the R4W Charitable Foundation running team. Ms Morgan, who is also on the charity's board of trustees, said: "The Run 4 Wales Charitable Foundation is extremely passionate about increasing participation and diversity in physical activity in Wales. "The charity has so far been able to invest £1 million into grassroots sport and community projects within Wales and our team of runners will help us achieve an even greater impact. "By joining our team at the Cardiff Half Marathon, you'll not only be achieving something incredible yourself, but by fundraising, you'll also be helping children, young people and adults across Wales take their first steps towards a more active and healthier life."

It has also helped establish more than 100 social running groups across Wales and supported 48 parkrun events.
