Welsh Castles Relay 2005

The Welsh Castles Relay took place this year over the weekend of 11th and 12th June.   It is an event like no other, a relay race over 20 stages from Caernarfon to Cardiff Castles.   Great Western Runners once again put in a mixed team.   For more details on the event click here.

The first photographs are mostly of GWR runners, but there are a series taken of runners from many clubs at the top of the climb from Brecon to Beacon Reservoirs.
