Why do we run?
The Hard Lines Run Club was born during the pandemic in 2020. As restrictions started to loosen we could see a real need for people to get back outside and be social again.
Our intention was to create a safe space where people of all abilities could come and enjoy some well-needed headspace and relaxation. An opportunity to meet like-minded people and feel part of a wider group.
Our run club has never solely been about running fast or far. It’s there as a tool for our community as well as acting as an opportunity to engage with important initiatives, collaborate and join forces with great brands and inspiring companies around the world.
We run every Thursday at 6:30pm from our Cafe in Cardiff for a social easy-paced 5km-8km run around the greenest spaces Cardiff has to offer.

The Length of Wales
