Following the success of an inaugural event earlier this year, Run To Rave – a new event blending fun, fitness and fundraising – is set to return to the Cardiff Bay barrage on Saturday 14th September.
Back in June, open air street food venue Tiger Yard hosted their first ever Run To Rave event – a fusion of fitness and fun that got hearts racing and feet moving.
Starting with a 5km fun-run around the picturesque Cardiff Bay barrage, participants then headed to Tiger Yard to groove to their favourite dance classics spun by Tiger Yard’s in-house DJs.
Tiger Yard’s resident traders (Terry’s Tacos, Fire & Flank, Meating Point and Dirty Bird) fired up the grills from noon, offering an array of street food options to help runners refuel – from smashed beef tacos to halloumi souvlaki, and crispy fried chicken with blue cheese sauce.
Run to Rave tickets are priced at £10, and a portion of each ticket sale was donated to Calon Hearts, a charity dedicated to supporting heart health initiatives. The first event raised over £2,000 in total, and organisers are keen to repeat this success at the second event on Saturday September 14th.
Sharon Owen, Charity Director at Calon Hearts said, “We are delighted and honoured that Tiger Yard has chosen to support Calon Hearts yet again as their charity partner for Run To Rave. All money raised will go towards part-funding mobile heart screening sessions and supply of defibrillators throughout Wales.”
