It takes place alongside the ABP Newport Wales Marathon, which has been expanded into an exciting festival of running with marathon, half marathon, 10K and junior race options.
The half marathon has a flat and fast course, starting and finishing in the heart of the city on Newport’s vibrant riverfront and take in the stunning scenery of the nearby Gwent Levels.
CoppaFeel! are the UK’s only youth focused breast cancer awareness charity, and we’re on a mission to get every 18-24 year old checking their chest. We educate people on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer and encourage them to check their chests regularly, so that if they notice something unusual they are empowered to contact their GP and advocate for themselves. We do this because when diagnosed early, breast cancer treatments are more effective and survival rates are higher. Early detection can save lives.
