🌊 PENDINE SANDS RACES – SUNDAY 11TH APRIL 2027

🏃 5K | 10K | HALF MARATHON

🏖️ The Course – Racing on the Sands!

No Roads. No Traffic. Just Sand, Sea and the Open Horizon!

Forget busy roads, crowded pavements and endless twists and turns.

The Pendine Sands Races offer something wonderfully different!

Imagine running across a vast expanse of golden sand, with the beautiful Carmarthenshire coastline stretching into the distance and the fresh sea air filling your lungs.

Welcome to one of the most unusual running courses in Britain.

On Sunday 11th April 2027, our 5K, 10K and Half Marathon competitors will take to the legendary Pendine Sands for a memorable day of coastal racing.

🏎️ Following in the Tyre Tracks of Legends!

Pendine Sands has a remarkable history.

During the 1920s, the beach became internationally famous for land-speed record attempts, with legendary drivers including Sir Malcolm Campbell pushing their remarkable machines to extraordinary speeds.

The beach was chosen for its enormous expanse of firm, relatively flat sand.

Today, we swap the roaring engines for running shoes!

You might not break a world land-speed record, but you'll certainly be racing across a beach steeped in sporting history.

From Blue Bird to Running Shoes – Pendine Was Made for Speed!

🌊 What Is the Running Surface Like?

If you've ever tried running through deep, soft sand, you'll know just how demanding it can be.

Fortunately, Pendine Sands is rather special.

At suitable states of the tide, large areas of the beach provide a firm, compacted running surface that can be surprisingly comfortable underfoot.

However, this is still a natural beach environment, and conditions can vary.

Competitors should be prepared for:

• 🏖️ Firm, compacted sand across much of the course.
• 🌊 Occasional softer or wetter patches.
• 💨 Coastal winds, which may help you in one direction and challenge you in the other!
• ☀️ Open, exposed conditions with very little shelter.
• 🌧️ Weather and surface conditions that can change throughout the event.

Our advice? Run to the conditions, find your rhythm and enjoy the experience!

🚩 Course Markings & Turning Points

All three race distances will follow their designated beach courses.

The routes and turning points will be identified by event signage and/or race officials.

Competitors must:

• Follow the designated course for their chosen distance.
• Complete the correct turning points and number of laps.
• Follow instructions issued by race marshals and officials.
• Remain within the permitted race area.
• Avoid taking shortcuts or deliberately reducing the race distance.

Please pay particular attention to the turning points, especially where runners from different distances may be sharing sections of the beach.

Remember: Completing the correct course is each competitor's responsibility.

🥤 Hydration & Refreshments

Running beside the sea can be deceptively demanding, particularly if conditions are warm or windy.

We encourage competitors to begin their race well hydrated and to carry their own fluids if required.

The Pendine Sands Races are a cup-free event, helping us reduce unnecessary waste and protect the beautiful coastal environment.

Please bring your own reusable drinking cup or suitable hydration container.

Final details of water station locations and refreshments will be included in the official race instructions.

🌊 The Tides – Nature Sets the Timetable!

Unlike a conventional road race, our Pendine Sands events must work around the natural tidal conditions.

The timing and layout of the races are planned with consideration for the tides, beach access and the safe use of the available running area.

Official race start times will be confirmed once the relevant arrangements have been finalised.

Competitors must follow all event instructions regarding the permitted course area and must never venture towards the incoming tide or outside the designated route.

👟 What Running Shoes Should I Wear?

For most competitors, a comfortable pair of well-fitting running shoes will be the best starting point.

The relatively firm sand may suit ordinary road-running shoes, although individual preferences and conditions will vary.

We recommend:

• 👟 Wearing shoes you've already trained in.
• 🧦 Choosing comfortable running socks.
• 🩹 Taking precautions if you're prone to blisters.
• 🌊 Being prepared for some sand and moisture underfoot.
• 🏃 Avoiding brand-new footwear on race day.

There's no need to buy specialist footwear simply because the race takes place on a beach.

Comfort, familiarity and confidence are the priorities!

🌿 Respect Our Beautiful Beach

Pendine Sands is a spectacular natural environment, and we're privileged to be able to hold our races here.

Please help us keep it that way.

• 🚯 Never leave litter on the beach.
• 🥤 Bring a reusable drinking cup.
• 🐦 Respect wildlife and the coastal environment.
• 🚩 Remain within the designated race area.
• 🤝 Be considerate towards other beach users.
• 🌊 Follow all safety instructions from race officials.

Let's leave nothing behind but footprints in the sand!

⏱️ Race Time Limit

All three distances have a maximum race completion time of four hours.

The final race timetable will be published once the tidal and operational arrangements have been confirmed.

Competitors should ensure they are capable of completing their chosen distance within the permitted time.

❤️ A Running Experience Like No Other!

There's something rather magical about running beside the sea.

The open space.

The endless horizon.

The sound of the waves.

And the knowledge that you're racing across the same legendary sands where some of the greatest speed records in history were achieved.

Whether you're taking on 5K, 10K or the Half Marathon, Pendine promises a running experience that's wonderfully different.

THREE DISTANCES. ONE LEGENDARY BEACH. UNLIMITED DETERMINATION!

🌊 Tides, Start Times & Race Safety – Running with Nature!

The Sea Sets the Timetable. We Set the Challenge. You Make the Memories!

The Pendine Sands Races offer a running experience unlike almost anything else in Britain.

Miles of open beach, fresh sea air, magnificent coastal views and the opportunity to race across sands famous for world land-speed records.

But there's one very important factor that makes racing at Pendine different from a traditional road event...

The tides!

At Pendine, Mother Nature plays an important part in our race planning, and competitor safety is always our priority.

🌊 Why Are the Tides So Important?

Pendine Sands is a vast, beautiful beach, but the amount of exposed sand changes considerably throughout the tidal cycle.

At low tide, the sea retreats to reveal an enormous expanse of beach, providing the space needed for our 5K, 10K and Half Marathon courses.

As the tide returns, the available running area gradually reduces.

This means our races must be carefully scheduled to ensure competitors have sufficient time to complete their chosen distance safely.

Unlike a road race, we can't simply close the roads and start whenever we like!

We work with the tidal conditions and relevant authorities when planning the event timetable.

🕒 Race Start Times – To Be Confirmed

Race Date: Sunday 11th April 2027

The official start times for all three distances will be confirmed once the tidal and operational arrangements have been finalised.

We appreciate that many competitors will be travelling some distance to Pendine, and we'll aim to provide confirmed timings as soon as practical.

Please do not rely on start times from previous years, as tidal conditions vary from one event to another.

The official 2027 race briefing will provide the final timetable, including registration arrangements and any race-specific instructions.

⏱️ Four Hours to Conquer Pendine!

All three race distances have a maximum completion time of four hours.

Whether you're running 5K, 10K or the Half Marathon, you'll need to complete your event within the permitted race window.

The time limit is an important part of our safety arrangements, allowing us to manage the event within the available tidal window.

Competitors who are unable to complete their distance within the permitted time may be instructed to withdraw from the race.

Please respect all instructions issued by race officials. They are there to keep everyone safe.

🏖️ Understanding the Beach Conditions

Pendine Sands is renowned for its relatively firm, flat sand, making it an unusual and enjoyable running surface.

However, this is a natural environment, and conditions can change.

Competitors should be prepared for:

• 🌊 Wet or Uneven Sand – Some sections may be softer, wetter or less even than others.
• 💨 Coastal Winds – Strong headwinds can make the outward or return journey surprisingly demanding.
• 🌧️ Rain and Changing Weather – Conditions can deteriorate quickly on an exposed coastline.
• ☀️ Sun Exposure – Even on cooler days, the open beach provides very little shelter.
• 🌫️ Reduced Visibility – Sea mist or poor weather may make distant landmarks difficult to see.
• 🏖️ Natural Beach Features – Runners should remain alert for channels, soft patches and other changes in the sand.

The best approach is to run sensibly, stay aware of your surroundings and adjust your pace to the conditions.

🚩 Stay Within the Marked Course

Our Pendine courses follow an out-and-back format, with numbered flags positioned at regular intervals.

These help competitors identify their progress and the correct turning points.

🟢 5K Turning Point

Flag 5 – 2.5km

Turn at Flag 5 and return to the finish.

🔵 10K Turning Point

Flag 10 – 5km

Turn at Flag 10 and return to the finish.

🟠 Half Marathon Turning Point

Flag 11 – 5.3km (approximately 3.28 miles)

Half Marathon competitors complete two out-and-back laps, following the official course instructions.

Important: Competitors must remain on the designated route, complete the correct turning points and follow any directions given by event marshals.

Never attempt to shorten the route by crossing an unmarked section of beach.

🚨 What Happens if Conditions Change?

Safety always comes first.

Although we plan our races carefully, coastal weather and beach conditions can be unpredictable.

If necessary, the organisers may:

• Adjust race start times.
• Modify the course layout or turning points.
• Introduce additional safety measures.
• Shorten or suspend an event.
• Cancel a race if conditions make it unsafe to proceed.

Any such decisions will be made with competitor safety as the overriding consideration.

We ask all runners to cooperate fully with race officials and understand that these decisions are never taken lightly.

❤️ Looking After Yourself and Other Runners

We want everyone to enjoy their Pendine experience and return home safely.

Please remember:

• 💧 Arrive well hydrated and carry fluids if required.
• 👟 Wear comfortable, suitable running shoes.
• 🧴 Consider sun protection, even when the weather feels cool.
• 🧥 Dress appropriately for the forecast conditions.
• 🚩 Follow the course markers and instructions from officials.
• 🏃 Run at a pace appropriate to your fitness and experience.
• 🤝 Look out for fellow competitors who may need assistance.
• 📣 Inform a race official if you feel unwell, injured or unable to continue.

If you decide to withdraw, you must notify an event official so that we can account for every competitor.

In a serious emergency, contact the emergency services on 999.

🥤 A Cup-Free Event – Help Protect Our Coastline!

Pendine Sands is a spectacular natural environment, and we're committed to keeping it that way.

Our races are cup-free, so competitors must bring their own reusable drinking cup or suitable hydration container.

Please take all litter with you or dispose of it at designated collection points.

Energy gel wrappers, food packaging and other waste must never be left on the beach.

Let's leave nothing behind but footprints in the sand!

📋 Before Race Day – Stay Informed!

As race day approaches, please keep an eye on the official event webpage and your email for important updates.

The final 2027 race briefing will include:

• Confirmed start times for all three races.
• Registration and race number collection details.
• Final course and turning-point arrangements.
• Water station and refreshment information.
• Any specific safety instructions.
• Weather-related or operational updates.

Please read the race briefing carefully before travelling.

🌊 Respect the Sea. Enjoy the Sands. Embrace the Challenge!

There's something truly special about running on a beach as historic and beautiful as Pendine Sands.

The vast open space, the sound of the waves and the fresh coastal air all combine to create an unforgettable race-day atmosphere.

By respecting the tides, following the course and looking after one another, we can help make the event safe and enjoyable for everyone.

💚 Elidyr Communities Trust – Empowering Lives, Inspiring Futures!

Every Person Has Potential. Every Opportunity Matters. Every Step Makes a Difference!

At Ultra Running Ltd, we believe that determination, encouragement and opportunity can help people achieve remarkable things.

It's something we see at our running events time and time again.

And it's a philosophy that sits beautifully alongside the inspiring work of Elidyr Communities Trust.

We're delighted to welcome this wonderful Carmarthenshire charity as a supporter of the Pendine Sands Races 2027.

Based in the beautiful Welsh countryside, Elidyr Communities Trust works to empower young adults with additional learning needs and disabilities, helping them build confidence, independence and the skills to enjoy fulfilling lives.

Because everyone deserves the opportunity to discover what they're capable of achieving.

🌿 Who Are Elidyr Communities Trust?

Elidyr Communities Trust is a specialist charity based in Rhandirmwyn, near Llandovery, Carmarthenshire.

The charity provides education, vocational learning, residential support and opportunities for young adults with additional learning needs and disabilities.

Its approach is centred around recognising the individuality, strengths and aspirations of each person.

Through a supportive and inclusive environment, Elidyr helps people develop practical skills, build relationships, gain confidence and participate more fully in their communities.

The aim is not simply to provide care or education.

It's to help people build meaningful, fulfilling and increasingly independent lives.

❤️ Helping People Reach Their Potential

Every individual has different abilities, interests, aspirations and support needs.

Elidyr Communities Trust recognises this and provides person-centred opportunities designed to help each learner develop at their own pace.

Its work includes:

• 📚 Specialist Education – Helping learners develop knowledge, communication and practical skills.
• 🛠️ Vocational Learning – Providing opportunities to gain experience and confidence through meaningful activities.
• 🏡 Residential Support – Creating supportive living environments where individuals can develop independence.
• 🤝 Social Development – Encouraging friendships, relationships and community participation.
• 🌱 Personal Growth – Helping people build confidence, discover interests and celebrate their achievements.
• ❤️ Individual Support – Recognising that every person's journey is unique.

These opportunities can make an enormous difference, not only to the individuals themselves but also to their families and wider communities.

🌟 Why This Charity Matters

For young adults with additional learning needs and disabilities, having access to appropriate education, opportunities and support can be life-changing.

Elidyr Communities Trust helps create an environment where individuals can explore their abilities, develop practical skills and work towards personal goals.

Some achievements may seem small to an outsider.

But gaining confidence, learning a new skill, making a friend or becoming more independent can represent a truly significant milestone.

And those milestones deserve celebrating.

At Elidyr, success is measured in confidence gained, opportunities created and lives enriched.

🏃 Supporting Elidyr Through the Pendine Sands Races

The Pendine Sands Races bring together people of different ages, abilities and backgrounds, united by a shared challenge.

And that makes the event a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness of the work undertaken by Elidyr Communities Trust.

📍 Travel, Parking & Registration – Getting to Pendine!

Your Pendine Adventure Starts Before You Reach the Beach!

A spectacular stretch of golden sand, magnificent coastal scenery and a little piece of British sporting history await you!

Welcome to Pendine Sands, Carmarthenshire, West Wales, home of the legendary land-speed record attempts and our exciting Pendine Sands Races 2027.

Whether you're joining us for the 5K, 10K or Half Marathon, we've put together some useful information to help make your journey and arrival as straightforward as possible.

After all, you've got enough to think about without worrying where to find the start line!

📍 Where Are the Pendine Sands Races?

Race Date: Sunday 11th April 2027

Location: Pendine Sands, Pendine, Carmarthenshire, West Wales

Race Start & Finish: On the beach near Barnacles Café

Nearest Postcode: SA33 4NY

What3words: ///steepest.daisy.leafing

All three race distances start and finish in the same general area, making it convenient for competitors and supporters alike.

The final race briefing will confirm the precise location of registration and any event-specific access arrangements.

🚗 Travelling by Car

Pendine is situated on the beautiful Carmarthenshire coastline, approximately halfway between the popular seaside destinations of Tenby and Laugharne.

The village is accessible by road from the wider South Wales road network.

For most competitors, travelling by car will be the most convenient option, particularly when arriving early for race registration.

We recommend allowing additional journey time, especially if you're unfamiliar with the area.

Please remember that race start times are determined by tidal conditions and will be confirmed nearer the event.

🅿️ Parking at Pendine

Public parking is available in Pendine, including parking facilities close to the beachfront.

Parking arrangements, charges and availability are managed locally and may vary.

We recommend:

• Arriving in plenty of time before your race.
• Following local parking signs and instructions.
• Checking the applicable parking charges and payment arrangements.
• Parking only in authorised areas.
• Keeping access routes clear for residents and emergency vehicles.
• Allowing sufficient time to walk from your vehicle to registration.

Please do not assume that parking is included in your race entry fee.

Any specific event parking arrangements will be communicated in the final race briefing.

🏃 Race Registration & Number Collection

Before you can head onto the sands, you'll need to complete the necessary race-day registration arrangements.

Details of race number collection, registration opening times and the exact registration location will be confirmed in the official 2027 pre-race email, sent to all competitors about four weeks before the event.

📋 Before Leaving Home

Please make sure you:

• Have read the latest pre-race email.
• Know which distance you've entered.
• Have checked the confirmed start time for your event.
• Allow sufficient time for parking and registration.
• Bring suitable running clothing and footwear.
• Bring your own reusable drinking cup or hydration container.
• Check the weather forecast and dress accordingly.
• Have any additional items specified in the final race instructions.

Don't leave everything until the last minute – arriving early makes for a much more enjoyable race morning!

🕒 Race Start Times

Unlike a conventional road race, the Pendine Sands Races must be scheduled around the tides.

This is essential to ensure that the beach is suitable for racing and that competitors can complete their chosen distance safely.

All three distances have a maximum completion time of four hours.

Please check the official race briefing for confirmed timings before making your final travel arrangements.

🚆 Travelling by Public Transport

Pendine does not have its own railway station.

Competitors wishing to travel by train should investigate services to nearby towns, with onward travel by local bus or taxi where available.

Public transport connections to coastal villages can be limited, particularly on Sundays.

If you're planning to use public transport, we strongly recommend checking the full journey, including the return trip, well in advance.

Please ensure your travel arrangements are compatible with the confirmed race start time.

🏨 Staying in the Area

Why not make a weekend of it?

Pendine and the surrounding Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire coastlines offer a wonderful selection of places to stay, from hotels and guesthouses to holiday cottages, campsites and caravan parks.

Nearby destinations worth considering include:

• Pendine – Stay close to the race start and enjoy the beach.
• Laugharne – A historic town with strong literary connections and beautiful estuary scenery.
• Saundersfoot – A popular coastal village with restaurants, cafés and accommodation.
• Tenby – A picturesque seaside town with beaches, shops and plenty of places to stay.
• St Clears – A useful inland base with road connections to Pendine.

Accommodation can be popular during weekends and holiday periods, so early booking is advisable.

☕ Food, Drinks & Local Facilities

Pendine has local cafés and other visitor facilities, making it a lovely place for runners and supporters to spend some time.

Our start and finish area is located near Barnacles Café, providing a useful landmark for locating the event.

Availability and opening hours of local businesses may vary, so please check directly if you're relying on a particular venue for breakfast or refreshments.

We also recommend bringing your own pre-race food and drinks rather than depending entirely on local facilities being open.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Bringing Friends & Family?

Spectators are very welcome to come along and enjoy the atmosphere of the Pendine Sands Races.

With the beach, cafés and coastal scenery close at hand, Pendine makes a wonderful location for a day out.

If you're bringing supporters, please ask them to:

• Keep clear of the designated running route.
• Follow instructions from race officials.
• Supervise children and pets near the course.
• Respect local beach safety guidance.
• Keep the beach clean and dispose of litter responsibly.
• Avoid obstructing the start and finish areas.

There's nothing quite like hearing a familiar voice cheering you towards the finish line!

🌊 Make a Weekend of Your Pendine Experience!

Pendine Sands is steeped in sporting history.

It's a place where pioneers once pushed the boundaries of speed, and today it offers a wonderful setting for runners to test their own limits.

With beautiful coastal walks, historic towns, spectacular scenery and plenty of opportunities to explore, there's every reason to stay a little longer.

Come for the race.

Stay for the scenery.

Leave with memories that will last long after the sand has disappeared from your running shoes!

🌊 PENDINE SANDS RACES – SUNDAY 11TH APRIL 2027

🏃 5K | 10K | HALF MARATHON

WHERE SPEED MEETS THE SEA!

📸 Race Photography & Memories – Capture Your Pendine Moment!

The Sand. The Sea. The Smiles. The Memories!

Some races are about the clock.

Some are about the distance.

And some are about those unforgettable moments that stay with you long after you've crossed the finish line.

The Pendine Sands Races are a wonderful combination of all three!

Imagine running across one of Britain's most famous beaches, with the magnificent Carmarthenshire coastline stretching into the distance, the sea breeze in your face and miles of open sand beneath your feet.

It's a running experience worth remembering.

And what better way to preserve those memories than with some fantastic race-day photographs?

📷 Capturing the Action!

From the anticipation at the start line to the determination out on the course and the celebrations at the finish, there are countless moments worth capturing.

We'll be looking to photograph the excitement and atmosphere of the Pendine Sands Races 2027, including:

• 🏁 The Start Line – That wonderful mixture of excitement, nerves and anticipation as runners prepare for their challenge.
• 🏃 Out on the Sands – Competitors tackling the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon against the spectacular coastal backdrop.
• 💪 The Determination – Those moments when the going gets tough, the wind picks up and runners dig a little deeper.
• 🎉 The Finish Line – Smiles, celebrations, relief and the satisfaction of completing your chosen distance.
• 🏅 Medal Moments – Proud finishers showing off their well-earned Pendine medals.
• 🏆 Race Champions – Celebrating our male and female winners across all three distances.

Whether you're racing for a personal best or simply enjoying the experience, we'd love to capture a little of your Pendine story.

🌊 A Backdrop Like No Other!

Pendine Sands isn't your average race venue.

This remarkable stretch of coastline has witnessed some extraordinary moments in British sporting history.

During the 1920s, legendary drivers such as Malcolm Campbell brought their record-breaking machines to Pendine in pursuit of ever-greater speeds.

Today, the beach provides a very different sort of sporting challenge!

Instead of powerful engines and land-speed records, it's running shoes, determination and a few thousand heartbeats.

But the sense of adventure remains.

And that magnificent beach makes a spectacular backdrop for your race photographs!

📸 Meet Our Event Photographer – Gerda

Many Ultra Running Ltd competitors will already be familiar with Gerda, whose photography has helped capture the atmosphere and achievements of our running events.

From action shots to those wonderful finish-line expressions, Gerda has a talent for preserving the moments that make an event memorable.

We're always delighted to see the determination, emotion and occasional exhaustion that comes through in race photographs!

Photographer attendance and coverage arrangements for Pendine 2027 will be confirmed nearer race day.

🖼️ Where Can I Find My Race Photographs?

After the event, we'll share information about any official race photography and where competitors can view the images.

Keep an eye on:

• 🌐 The Ultra Running Ltd Website – For post-race updates and photography information.
• 📘 Our Facebook Page – For race highlights, photographs and finisher celebrations.
• 📱 Our Instagram Page – For memorable moments from the sands.

Where a dedicated photo gallery is available, we'll provide details of how to access it.

Please allow time after the event for photographs to be reviewed and uploaded.

🟢 PENDINE 5K – 8-WEEK INTERMEDIATE TRAINING PLAN

PFM Coaching's 8-week intermediate programme is designed to help runners improve their performance on the beach's firm, flat surface.

The programme includes:

• Speed intervals to develop running speed and fitness.

Pendine Sands Intermediate 5k

🔵 PENDINE 10K – 8-WEEK INTERMEDIATE TRAINING PLAN

Eight Weeks to Build Speed, Stamina and Confidence!

The Pendine 10K presents a fascinating challenge.

A long, straight run across the sands, a single turning point and the return journey towards the finish.

Sounds simple?

Add an exposed coastline, the possibility of a strong headwind and the mental challenge of maintaining your pace over a seemingly endless beach, and things become rather more interesting!

PFM Coaching's 8-week intermediate programme includes:

• Tempo sessions to develop the ability to sustain a challenging pace.
• Speed intervals and controlled faster efforts.
• Longer steady runs to build endurance.
• Special race simulation sessions for long, straight sections.

Pendine Sands Intermediate 10k

🟠 PENDINE HALF MARATHON – 12-WEEK INTERMEDIATE TRAINING PLAN

Twelve Weeks to Prepare for 13.1 Miles of Determination!

The Half Marathon is our longest Pendine Sands challenge, and it requires more than simply being able to cover the distance.

With two out-and-back laps, competitors must manage their effort, maintain concentration and find the determination to head back out after completing the first lap.

PFM Coaching's 12-week intermediate programme is designed to help you prepare for both the physical and mental demands of this unique event.

The programme includes:

• Progressive endurance training.
• Goal-pace sessions to develop race-specific fitness.

💙 A Huge Thank You to PFM Coaching!

We'd like to extend a very special thank you to PFM Coaching for taking the time to create these dedicated training programmes.

Their contribution gives our competitors access to structured training advice that goes beyond simply increasing weekly mileage.

Each plan includes detailed workout instructions, explanations of training intensity, strength routines and practical race-day guidance.

It's a fantastic resource for anyone looking to get more from their preparation.

Thank you, PFM Coaching, for helping our runners reach the Pendine start line ready for the challenge ahead!

🌊 Why Is Training for Pendine Different?

Pendine Sands has a remarkable sporting history.

Its vast, firm beach once provided the setting for some of Britain's most famous land-speed record attempts.

Today, it offers runners an extraordinary opportunity to test themselves against the clock.

But while the course is relatively flat, it presents challenges you won't necessarily encounter on a conventional road race.

💨 The Coastal Winds

An exposed beach can mean strong winds.

You might enjoy a helpful tailwind in one direction, only to face a demanding headwind on the return.

PFM Coaching's plans explain how to manage your effort rather than becoming overly focused on maintaining an exact pace.

🏖️ The Beach Surface

Although Pendine is famous for its firm sand, conditions can vary with the tides and weather.

Learning to maintain an efficient running rhythm can help you cope with the surface.

🦵 The Beach Camber

Even a relatively flat beach may slope gently towards the sea.

The plans include specific strengthening exercises, including clamshells, side leg raises and single-leg balance work, to help runners prepare for these conditions.

🧠 The Mental Challenge

Pendine's long, open stretches can make the turning point seem deceptively far away.

The 10K programme includes training designed to simulate these long straight sections, while the Half Marathon plan addresses the mental challenge of completing two laps.

The better you prepare, the more confident you can feel when race day arrives!

🚦 Understanding Your Training Effort

All three PFM Coaching programmes use the Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) system.

Rather than relying entirely on the pace displayed by your running watch, RPE helps you judge how hard you're working on a scale of 1 to 10.

For example:

• RPE 1–4: Very easy or recovery effort.
• RPE 5: Comfortable endurance running.
• RPE 6: Steady, controlled effort.
• RPE 7–8: Challenging tempo running.
• RPE 9–10: Very hard, high-intensity effort.

This approach can be particularly useful at Pendine, where wind and sand conditions may influence your pace.

Each downloadable plan explains the system in more detail and shows how to apply it to individual workouts.

❤️ A Training Plan That Works for You

These three programmes are designed for intermediate runners who already have a suitable foundation of running fitness.

If you're new to running, returning after a lengthy break or recovering from injury, you may need a more gradual programme before progressing to these schedules.

Remember:

• Build your training sensibly.
• Allow time for rest and recovery.
• Adjust your training to your current fitness and circumstances.
• Avoid trying to make up missed sessions by dramatically increasing your workload.
• Seek professional advice if you're unsure whether a particular training session is suitable for you.

Consistency is more important than trying to make every training run your fastest!

🏅 Your Training. Your Challenge. Your Achievement!

Every training session is another step towards the Pendine Sands finish line.

There will be early mornings.

There may be difficult sessions.

And there will certainly be days when the weather makes staying indoors rather tempting!

But imagine the satisfaction of crossing that finish line, collecting your bespoke medal and knowing that all your preparation has paid off.

Whether you're chasing a personal best or simply aiming for a strong, enjoyable race, we hope these training plans will help you make the most of your Pendine experience.

🌊 PENDINE SANDS RACES – SUNDAY 11TH APRIL 2027

🏃 5K | 10K | HALF MARATHON

WHERE SPEED MEETS THE SEA!

💧 Water Stations & Refreshments – Stay Hydrated on the Sands!

Run Strong. Stay Refreshed. Keep Those Legs Moving!

Whether you're taking on the Pendine 5K, 10K or Half Marathon, staying properly hydrated is an important part of enjoying your race.

Running along the spectacular Pendine Sands is a wonderful experience, but the exposed coastline, coastal winds and changing weather can make hydration particularly important.

That's why we'll have three self-service refreshment station locations along the course, providing runners with an opportunity to top up their fluids.

And for 2027, we're expanding our drinks selection!

🥤 What's Available at Our Refreshment Stations?

Competitors will be able to choose from:

• 💧 Fresh Water – The essential running companion!
• 🥤 Cola – For those who fancy something a little different.
• 🍊 Orange Squash – A refreshing alternative to plain water.

All three drinks will be available at our refreshment stations.

Please remember that all stations are self-service, so competitors should allow a little extra time when stopping for refreshments.

📍 Where Are the Water Stations?

Our refreshment stations are positioned along the beach at the following locations:

💧 Water Station 1 – Start / Finish

Location: 0km

Situated at the race start and finish area, close to Barnacles Café.

💧 Water Stations 2 & 4 – The 5K Turning Point

Location: 2.5km – Flag 5

This station is positioned at the 5K turning point.

It serves as both Water Station 2 and Water Station 4, as runners travelling farther along the beach can use it on their outward and return journeys.

One physical station, two opportunities to refresh!

💧 Water Station 3 – The 10K Turning Point

Location: 5km – Flag 10

Our furthest refreshment station is located at the 10K turning point, approximately 5km from the start.

This provides an opportunity for competitors reaching this section of the beach to take on fluids before continuing their race.

📋 Refreshment Station Summary

Please note: Stations 2 and 4 refer to the same physical refreshment point, used in both directions.

🌱 We're a CUP-FREE Event!

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN REUSABLE CUP!

To help reduce waste and protect the beautiful Pendine coastline, the Pendine Sands Races are completely CUP-FREE.

This means that disposable drinking cups will not be supplied at our refreshment stations.

Every competitor must bring their own reusable cup or suitable drinking container.

A collapsible running cup is an excellent option, as it's lightweight, easy to carry and can be tucked into a pocket or running belt.

🛍️ Need a Reusable Cup?

You can purchase a reusable running cup from our Ultra Running Ltd online store.

It's a useful addition to your running kit, not just for Pendine but for future events too!

No Cup = No Drink from the Station!

Please make sure you've packed yours before leaving home.

🏃 A Few Hydration Tips for Race Day

Everyone's hydration requirements are different, depending on the distance, weather, running intensity and individual needs.

A little forward planning can make your race much more comfortable.

• 💧 Arrive Hydrated – Drink normally in the hours leading up to your race.
• 🥤 Carry Your Own Cup – Remember that our stations do not provide disposable cups.
• 🏃 Drink According to Your Needs – Don't wait until you're struggling, but avoid forcing excessive amounts of fluid.
• 🍊 Practise Your Nutrition – If you plan to drink cola or orange squash during the race, it's worth trying them during training first.
• 🌊 Respect the Conditions – Warm weather and strong coastal winds may influence your hydration needs.
• 🎒 Consider Carrying Fluids – Particularly if you're taking on the Half Marathon or prefer to drink between stations.

❤️ Help Us Keep Pendine Beautiful!

Pendine Sands is a remarkable natural environment, and we're committed to doing our part to protect it.

Please help us by:

• Bringing your reusable cup.
• Keeping all litter with you until you reach a suitable disposal point.
• Never dropping gel wrappers or other packaging on the beach.
• Following instructions at the refreshment stations.
• Leaving the beach as beautiful as you found it.

The only thing we want left behind is footprints in the sand!

🌊 Refuel, Refresh and Enjoy the Race!

Whether you're stopping for a quick sip of water, enjoying some orange squash or reaching for a little cola, our refreshment stations are there to help you along your Pendine adventure.

So remember your reusable cup, plan your hydration and get ready for a memorable day beside the sea!

WHERE SPEED MEETS THE SEA!

🎒 Race Rules & Essential Information – Everything You Need to Know!

Be Prepared. Run Fair. Stay Safe. Enjoy the Sands!

There's nothing quite like racing across the legendary Pendine Sands!

With miles of open beach, fresh coastal air and a backdrop steeped in sporting history, it's an experience to remember.

But before you lace up your running shoes and head for the start line, there are a few important things you need to know.

Whether you're entering the 5K, 10K or Half Marathon, these guidelines will help ensure a safe, fair and enjoyable event for everyone.

🏃 Choose Your Challenge

The Pendine Sands Races take place on Sunday 11th April 2027, with three distances available:

All competitors must be at least 16 years old on race day.

Please ensure you enter the correct distance and provide accurate information when registering.

⏱️ Race Start Times & Cut-Offs

Our races are held on a natural beach, so the timetable must be planned around the tides.

Official start times for 2027 will be confirmed nearer the event.

All three distances have a maximum completion time of four hours.

The time limit is an important safety measure, allowing us to manage the event within the available tidal window.

Competitors must comply with any cut-off instructions issued by race officials.

If you are instructed to withdraw for safety reasons, you must do so.

🚩 Follow the Correct Course

All three races use an out-and-back course along Pendine Sands.

Numbered flags are positioned along the route to help competitors identify their progress and turning points.

🟢 Pendine 5K

Run to Flag 5 at 2.5km, turn around and return to the finish.

🔵 Pendine 10K

Run to Flag 10 at 5km, turn around and return to the finish.

🟠 Pendine Half Marathon

Run to the Half Marathon turning point at Flag 11, approximately 5.3km, and complete two out-and-back laps, following the official race instructions.

Important course rules:

• Follow the designated course and all instructions from race officials.
• Complete the correct turning point for your distance.
• Do not deliberately shorten the course.
• Remain alert to other runners, particularly around turning points.
• Respect any restricted or closed sections of beach.
• Follow any revised route instructions issued on race day.

The final race briefing will confirm the course arrangements.

🏅 Race Numbers & Timing

All competitors must follow the race number and timing instructions provided by the organisers.

Your race number must be clearly visible throughout the event.

Please ensure it is attached securely and is not folded or obscured.

Where timing equipment is issued, competitors must use it as instructed.

Race numbers must not be transferred to another person without authorisation from the organisers.

Accurate competitor identification is essential for race management, results and safety.

🎒 What Should You Bring?

You don't need an enormous amount of equipment to enjoy Pendine, but arriving properly prepared makes a big difference.

Recommended Race-Day Kit

• 👟 Suitable Running Shoes – Comfortable footwear appropriate for firm and occasionally softer sand.
• 🧥 Weather-Appropriate Clothing – Coastal weather can be unpredictable, so dress for the conditions.
• 💧 Hydration – Bring sufficient fluids for your needs.
• 🥤 Reusable Drinking Cup – Our event is cup-free.
• 🍌 Nutrition – Bring any energy gels, snacks or other nutrition you may require.
• 🧴 Sun Protection – Sunscreen and a cap can be useful on an exposed beach.

Please also check the final race briefing for any additional requirements.

🥤 We're a Cup-Free Event!

At Ultra Running Ltd, we're committed to reducing unnecessary waste wherever possible.

The Pendine Sands Races are cup-free, meaning disposable drinking cups will not be provided by the organisers.

Competitors should bring their own reusable cup, soft flask or suitable hydration container.

Please plan your hydration needs accordingly.

A cleaner beach is a better beach for everyone!

🌊 Respect the Tides & Coastal Conditions

Pendine Sands is a magnificent place to run, but it is also a natural coastal environment.

The tides, weather and beach conditions can all affect the event.

Please remember:

• The exposed beach area changes throughout the tidal cycle.
• Sand conditions may vary along the course.
• Strong coastal winds can make running more demanding.
• Wet or uneven areas may require extra care.
• Visibility and weather conditions can change.
• Race officials may alter arrangements when necessary for safety.

Competitor safety will always take priority over the race timetable.

If conditions become unsuitable, the organisers reserve the right to modify, postpone, shorten or cancel an event where necessary.

❤️ Your Health & Safety

Running should be challenging and enjoyable, but it's important to recognise your own limits.

Please ensure you're appropriately trained and fit enough to complete your chosen distance.

If you become unwell, injured or unable to continue:

1. Stop running and move to a safe location.
2. Inform the nearest race official or marshal.
3. Follow any instructions given.
4. Do not leave the event without notifying an official.

This helps us account for every competitor.

If you encounter another runner who appears to be in difficulty, please alert a race official.

Looking after one another is part of what makes the running community special.

In a life-threatening emergency, call 999.

🤝 Fair Play & Good Sportsmanship

The Pendine Sands Races welcome runners of different abilities, backgrounds and experience levels.

Some competitors will be chasing personal bests.

Others will be completing their first organised race.

And some will simply be enjoying the extraordinary experience of running along this historic coastline.

Whatever your reason for taking part, we ask everyone to demonstrate good sportsmanship.

• Treat fellow competitors with respect.
• Be courteous to marshals, volunteers and members of the public.
• Avoid obstructing other runners.
• Follow all reasonable instructions from race officials.
• Do not interfere with course markers or equipment.
• Respect the local community and beach users.

Run hard, race fairly and encourage one another!

🌱 Leave Only Footprints!

Pendine Sands is one of the most remarkable beaches in Wales.

We're privileged to be able to hold our races in such a beautiful location, and we all have a responsibility to look after it.

Please:

• Take your litter with you.
• Dispose of waste only in appropriate bins.
• Never drop energy gel wrappers or food packaging.
• Respect local wildlife and the natural environment.
• Avoid disturbing areas outside the designated race route.

Let's make sure the only thing we leave behind is our footprints in the sand!

🏆 Finisher Medals & Race Awards

Every competitor who successfully completes their chosen distance in accordance with the event rules will receive a bespoke Pendine Sands finisher medal.

Trophies will also be awarded to the first male and first female finisher in each of our three distances.

That means six race champions across the 5K, 10K and Half Marathon!

Whether you're racing for a trophy or your very first medal, every achievement matters.
