Here at Front Runner Events, we bring you running events for you to take part in, but without YOU, the running events can’t go ahead. Our fun-loving runners are what make our events what they are.
Good health and well-being are critical for us all, but sometimes we don’t make it a priority when we have busy schedules, but we should! Workplace fitness is important for individuals, a team, and the business, as people are the vital assets of every company! We often find ourselves feeling run down, or exhausted and don’t associate exercise with work. However, it doesn’t have to be that way with many organisations taking the lead to develop a culture of workplace fitness.
We all know running is good for our general fitness, but it also helps improve our mental health and it’s all in the science! Running releases chemical endorphins and serotonin in your body that lifts your mood and can help relieve anxiety and depression. This week is Mental Health Awareness Week and the theme this year is loneliness so we wanted to share how running can reduce the feeling of loneliness and help bring you together with others who share the same passion for running.

Front Runner Events are proud to announce the take-over of the Port Talbot Half Marathon which is set to take place on Sunday 14th August 2022. The event, which was created by Port Talbot Harriers 6 years ago, is a keen favourite with all runners that participate. Set in the idyllic setting of Glyncorrwg in the Afan Valley, the Port Talbot Half Marathon will add a new dimension to the Front Runner Event series.
Volunteers play a vital role of our crew and we simply couldn’t deliver our events without them! So today we wanted to shine a spotlight on one of our volunteers who has been with us from the very beginning!
