Lockstock AC member Johanna McManus travelled to Conway to take part in the annual half marathon.
This is a gruelling 13.1 mile with an epic elevation gain of 850ft. It was a wet and miserable day when runners set off from Conway, across the river towards the Great Orme. Runners loop the Great Orme enjoying the beautiful scenery but also the brutal climb.
