Dare12Run - the first 12 hour ultra-marathon continuous trail loop race in Wales
Operating as usual
The Dare2Run journey has sadly come to an end.
From our conception back in 2017 we have had an incredible ride, and itβs been a privilege to have shared our love of the trails with you all.
We want to give a huge thank you to all of those who came to our races to run, volunteer or support us - you are the ones who gave us the courage to pursue and achieve our dreams and who pushed us along the way!
All entrants will be refunded over the coming weeks. We would massively recommend reinvesting in one of the other local trail races β check out @pegasusultrarunning 2022 calendar for some inspiration to get you back out on the trails.
We hope to see you out on the trails some day soon.
Dean & Oli x
(All existing and roll-over entrants have been emailed with details of the refund process - if youβve missed this the process is automatic and youβll be refunded to the bank account you booked with from Active Works, the ticket sales host)
Following the recent Welsh Gov. advice we have made the tough decision to postpone the 2020 Dare12 Trail Race & Festival until Sept. 2021.
Those with tickets keep an eye on your emails for further info later today.
Thanks so much for your continued support - we miss you all and will back better than ever soon!
Stay safe and enjoy the trails,
Dean & Oli x

Remember - festival tickets are still available for those wanting to catch the mighty Dirty Alex set (or if you fancy donating a couple of hours as a Marshall you can get in for free!)

Pob lwc to all those running in South Wales and beyond this weekend, including the unbelievable Kevin Evans (pictured) - he started his foray into trail running last September with his first ultra at the Dare12. Tomorrow he takes on his first 100miler in the Dragon 100 coastal race! (Heβs also supporting a superb cause - https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/kevin-evans13)
