What you’re in for
The first day of the Wales end to end: 37 miles from Holyhead across Anglesey, over the Menai Strait and along the coast to Caernarfon, all of it on National Cycle Route 8. Holyhead to Caernarfon: 60.4km, with six checkpoints on the way. It is day 1 of the Wales end to end, and you can run it on its own or as part of the whole. Anglesey is low and open, and the Menai crossing is the moment the day changes — Snowdonia fills the view from the bridge onwards. Mount to Coast rules apply on the single day as on the series: preset cut-offs based on a minimum 4 mph average, a warning the first time you fall below it, and no one on the course after ten at night. Checkpoints roughly every eight miles, a tracker with an SOS button, and maps and GPX for entrants only — bring a map case.
Terrain and trail
National Cycle Route 8 — Lôn Las Cymru — the whole way, which means traffic-free cycle path, old railway and quiet lane, hard-surfaced almost throughout. Road shoes, as the organiser supplies. The difficulty is the distance and the hills of mid-Wales, not the ground.
