The Welsh 1000m race was probably my toughest race yet, largely due to the intense heat on the day. The clear, sunny weather provided excellent visibility, but the lack of wind made for challenging conditions as I tackled the demanding course.The route covered 31.39 km with 2801 m of ascent, taking in several major peaks, including Carnedd Dafydd, Carnedd Llewelyn, Glyder Fawr, and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon). The climbs were grueling under the scorching sun, but the spectacular views at the summits offered some consolation.Despite the tough conditions, I managed to maintain a steady pace throughout, with an average speed of 5.51 kmph. This race pushed me to my limits, but completing it was a huge achievement and a testament to perseverance and endurance.

Carneddau
The Carneddau (lit. "the cairns"; Carneddau is a Welsh plural form, and is sometimes anglicised to Carnedds) are a group of mountains in Snowdonia, Wales. They include the largest contiguous areas of high ground (over 2,500 or 3,000 feet (910 m) high) in Wales and England, as well as six or seven of the highest peaks in the country—the Fourteen Peaks. The range also encloses a number of lakes such as Llyn Cowlyd and Llyn Eigiau, and the Aber Falls waterfalls. It is delimited by the Irish Sea to the north, the Conwy valley to the east, and by the A5 road from Betws-y-Coed to Bethesda to the south and west. The area covers nearly 200 square kilometres, about 10% of the area of Snowdonia.
