Celebrate at the Kidney Wales CDF 10K with Kilted Dragon

Kilted Dragon Distillery will be coming to the Kidney Wales CDF 10K joining the event as its Celebration Supporter.

The family-run craft distillery from Cwmbran has partnered with the event to help celebrate the resilience, pride and togetherness of all the runners taking part and supporters coming out to cheer.

As well as providing a selection of premium, locally crafted alcoholic liqueurs and spirits for people to celebrate with post-event in the event village, Kilted Dragon will also be entering a team into the race, blending its Welsh and Scottish heritage together.

It will proudly be bringing this spirit to the city centre with its team running in kilts – and all for a good cause too, as they will be doing so to raise money for both 2Wish and the event’s headline sponsor, Kidney Wales.

Jamie Boycott, Director at Kilted Dragon, said: “We’re proud to join the Kidney Wales CDF 10K for its 40th anniversary – a celebration of community, pride and the people who make this event iconic. Running in kilts lets us honour our heritage and share a little character along the way. And remember – run now, rum later.”

This year’s event will take place on Sunday 6 September and is set to be its largest yet as the race celebrates its 40th anniversary.

Matt Newman, Chief Executive at event organisers Run4 Wales, added: “We’re thrilled to welcome Kilted Dragon as the Celebration Supporter for this year’s Kidney Wales CDF 10K. As a proudly Welsh distillery with a passion for bringing people together, they’re a fantastic addition to an event that’s all about community, achievement and creating memorable experiences.

“There will be plenty to celebrate on race day. Not only will thousands of runners be crossing the finish line after achieving their own personal goals, but this year’s event also marks the 40th anniversary of the CDF 10K. It’s a huge milestone for one of Wales’ most iconic road races, and we’re excited to have Kilted Dragon helping us mark the occasion and make the celebrations even more special for everyone involved.”

Kilted Dragon is also designing a range of limited edition 40th anniversary CDF 10 bottles that are available to collect on race day.
