JCP Half Marathon Swansea 2019

JCP Half Marathon Swansea 2019..The JCP Swansea Half Marathon offers runners the chance for a perfect personal best on the flat, fast, scenic 13.1 route. The race starts outside the iconic Brangwyn Hall before hitting the beautiful vista of Swansea Bay and enjoying some of the most breathtaking views of any half marathon. The race finish is in Adelaide Street near the National Waterfront Museum in the city centre. Six thousand runners took part, including the wheelchair race. The weather was perfect for this event, cloudy, dry, and cold. Swansea city council created a rolling closure of roads in and around the event which lasted well into the afternoon. It is sad to report that one person has died during the run. Matt Clowes was the winner with a time of 1:04:43 and Josh Griffiths came second with a time of 1:06:10. Richie Powell won the wheelchair run with a time of 1:02:04.
