The Marathon usually starts at 06:00am, though this is subject to change. The race start time will be confirmed in your Final Instructions, which are available to view on the website 10 days before the race.

There will be staged cut-offs across the race to ensure the safety and well-being of volunteers and competitors.

Finish Line timing ends after 8 hours and 15 minutes

There are 5 aid stations on the Marathon route

Water is available on the mountain at 5.75km. Due to the difficulty of supplying water containers high on Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), there will be a limited supply here. We are unable to refill water containers at this point.

Water, High 5 energy drinks, gels & snacks will be available at 12km, 19.9km, 24.9km and 35km.

Please note that our races are cupless, meaning you must provide a reusable race cup or bottle to fill at feed stations. Race cups are available at the event shop in the event village.

We hold a prize-giving ceremony after the racing; approximate timings will be detailed in the Final Instructions. It is a good idea to listen out for any updates that come in over the tannoy. Sometimes the ceremony may be delayed, and we wouldn't want you to miss out. We don't send out prizes after the event, so make sure you attend the ceremony and receive your big Welsh cheer!
