Pembrokeshire has become ‘the place’ to host triathlon and endurance events in the last decade or so.
The rolling landscapes and juxtaposition of the coastline make the region perfect for holding both small and large-scale endurance events, 10k-runs, triathlon events, marathons and the bulging events calendar is punctuated by the annual showstopper of the IRONMAN Wales event.
Many use the other smaller events in the calendar as training for the larger events, such as IMW, or Long Course Weekend, which traditionally takes place in July, and many events which have been running for a number of years are seeing increased entry numbers and a higher profile, due to the increase in enthusiasm and participation in endurance events nationally.
Let’s take a close look at the types of events that you can compete in when visiting West Wales.
