Why was Run Finder set up?

There are loads of brilliant running events in South Wales and the West. But finding them can be really tricky. They are often listed on different websites and social media groups, which means lots of searching. Sometimes, you may only hear of an event after it's happened. 

So, the aim of Run Finder is to put them all in one place. It hopefully means anyone who wants to take part in a running event, but not travel too far, can look across the whole year and find something that's right for them.

Do race organisers benefit? 

We certainly hope so.

There is no charge for being listed on Run Finder.

If we hear about the race, we'll add it.

We just want runners, and those thinking of running, to easily be able to see what events are available.

We are building a community on Instagram and regularly share posts from event organisers.

Why only 'an hour' from Bristol

Well, we had to start somewhere. Even within an hour of Bristol there are more running events than most people would realise (100+ at time of writing). 

One day we may expand, but for now (and for our sanity!) we'll keep it to South Wales and the West.

We do list a handful of events that are further than an hour's drive - these are usually if they are part of a series or something a bit different.
