Around 120 runners raise over £1,100 in charity Boxing Day run

Around 120 runners took part in a charity Boxing Day run in Cwmbran.

It was organised by Griffithstown Harriers running club to raise money for Kidney Wales. Runners started on the river path outside the Olive Tree Club in Croesyceiliog. They had the choice of doing one or two laps of the 2.5 miles course that took them through Llanyrafon and Croesyceiliog.

Many of the runners took part wearing fancy dress and brightly coloured outfits.

Dozens of raffle prizes were donated and this along with the race entry fees helped the running club raise £1156.52 for the charity.

Visit the Griffithstown Harriers website for more information about the club.
