Cardiff Marathon & Half

Hilly

moosey, the Waterguard sounds a nice pub! I'm staying about 1/2 a mile from the M.Stadium so would I need to get a taxi to Cardiff Bay, or is it within walking distance?

Plum

you could run down hilly ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Hilly

No Plum, I only walk:o)

My friend and I will head to the Bay to eat, but we'll decide where when we have a look around at what's available. Then if the new post eat pub is the Waterguard, we'll go there after to meet some of you.

Smitch

Thanks for the info, Moosey.

hilly - I'd get a taxi (just because otherwise you may end up walking down bute street which isn't the nicest- in stark contrast to Lloyd George avenue which is quite pleasant!) if they don't know the name 'the waterguard', they'll know that it's the pub by the Norweigan church. Just as a warning though, the last time I went to the bay to eat without booking I couldn't get anywhere, however, this was mid summer, warm evening, about 9pm (prime-time), and everyone was out. If you're down there around 7.30 you should def be ok (plus it won't be as hot so less people out), and you can get food in the pubs if you can't get a restaurant.
