💷 Pay day, bank holiday weekend… what better way t 💷 Pay day, bank holiday weekend… what better way to start it than getting a race in the diary?

Join us for the return of the Tonmawr Hilly 5 on Sunday 31st May at 11:00am. A proper local race that delivers on everything you want. Great value, incredible views and a course that will really test you.

Set in the beautiful surroundings of Bryn Bettws Lodge in Afan Forest, this is not your average 5 miler. With around 750ft of climbing, it is tough, but that is what makes crossing that finish line feel so good.

We are thrilled to announce that the incredible @burger.boyzzz are our main sponsors for the event. Got your proof of entry? Then enjoy 10% off in their restaurants.

Whether you are looking for a new challenge, building towards your next race, or just fancy something this is the one for you.

Support local, challenge yourself and be part of a brilliant atmosphere.

🌲 Tonmawr Hilly 5 – Sunday 31st May 2026 at 11:00a 🌲 Tonmawr Hilly 5 – Sunday 31st May 2026 at 11:00am 🌲

We are delighted to bring back the much loved Tonmawr Hilly 5 and we cannot wait to welcome you all back for another unforgettable day of running.

Set within the stunning grounds of Bryn Bettws Lodge in the heart of Afan Forest, this race offers some of the most scenic views you will find on the running calendar. Do not be fooled though, this is a tough course. With around 750ft of elevation, it will test you from start to finish. But that is exactly what makes it so special.

From challenging climbs to rewarding descents, every mile gives you something different. The sense of achievement when you cross the finish line is something every runner will remember and be proud of.

Whether you are chasing a time, taking on a new challenge, or just looking to enjoy a fantastic race in a beautiful location, the Tonmawr Hilly 5 has something for everyone.

Entries are now open and we would love to see a big turnout for the return of this brilliant event.
