Nos Galan road race
Nos Galan ((ウェールズ語:Rasys Enwog Nos Galan)) is an annual five-kilometre (3.1 mi) road running event, held on New Year's Eve in Mountain Ash, in the Cynon Valley of South Wales.
==History==
Nos Galan celebrates the life and achievements of Welsh runner Guto Nyth Brân. Founded in 1958 by local runner Bernard Baldwin, it is run over the route of Bran's first competitive race.
At its height covered by the BBC nationally as part of its New Year's Eve celebrations,〔 the races were halted in 1973 due to concerns expressed by the Glamorgan Police regarding the undue delay to traffic.〔 Nos Galan was resurrected in 1984, when a reduced field of 14 runners ran a race. The race also broke with tradition, with three mystery runners, representing the present, past and future of athletics, carried the Nos Galan Torch.〔
Nos Galan still attracts runners from all over Great Britain. The 2009 race attracted over 800 runners, and 10,000 people into Mountain Ash for the associated entertainment.
