Bu mis Mehefin yn golygu dau ddigwyddiad i redwyr Clwb Sarn Helen ers tro, sef Ras Ffordd 6 Milltir Felinfach a Ras Gyfnewid Cestyll Cymru, a chynhaliwyd y ddau ddigwyddiad yn llwyddiannus unwaith eto eleni.

After a two year absence, there was once again a flurry of activity in Drefach on the first Monday in May as the Cledlyn Valley Fun Races attracted runners of all ages to support Dyffryn Cledlyn Primary School.  Follwing his 7th place finish in the Teifi 10 mile race in Lampeter a week before,  Mark Horsman from Pontypridd won the senior race in 28 minutes 59 seconds.  The course starts on a back road near Drefach and climbs Rhiw Siôn before making its way back out onto the main road from Llanwnnen to finish at the School gates. The first woman was Clare Patterson (32:48) from Griffithstown near Pontypool.

Daeth un o rasys mwyaf cyfarwydd a phoblogaidd Clwb Sarn Helen, sef Ras Ffordd 10 Milltir Teifi, yn ôl i fywyd ar y 24ain o Ebrill wedi dwy flynedd o seibiant oherwydd y feirws Covid a daeth cant ac un o redwyr i redeg y cwrs sydd yn cychwyn y tu ôl i Glwb Rygbi Llanbed ac yn dilyn yr heol i Lanfair Clydogau cyn croesi’r afon a dychwelyd trwy Gellan i’r cae rygbi.

The Ras Cors Caron Half Marathon, held in the challenging weather conditions of Storm Dennis on 16 February 2020, started in Tregaron and followed a route through Swyddffynnon, Ystrad Meurig, along the old railway line on the Cors Caron nature reserve, and back into Tregaron. Cawl and refreshments were provided in Tregaron Rugby Club for participants to dry out and warm up after encountering winds and standing water along the way.

A firm favourite of a fixture in the winter calendar, the Crymych Team Pursuit event took place on a wet and windy Saturday, January 26th 2020, but there is no such weather as bad weather for running!

Undeterred by whatever the January weather throws at us, Clwb Sarn Helen Running Club’s members are off to a great start to 2020, with results pouring in from events around the country, and an increase in membership numbers.

As the year draws to a close, over 600 runners braved challenging weather conditions to take part in the Aberystwyth juniors and senior races along the seafront on Sunday 8th December.

At the Bexhill Poppy Runs on Saturday 9 November 2019, over 300 runners took part in the 10k event, with Sarn Helen Running Club’s Graham Penn (M65) donning conventional kit, having run the Half Marathon in full World War One uniform for the past five years! The weather was superb, with Graham achieving a time of 59:46.
