This has been an annual event in Llanwrtyd Wells since 1980 when the landlord of one of the local pubs overheard 2 men discussing whether or not over a significant distance a man could beat a horse. After 25 years a runner finally beat the horse and it happened again 2 years later.
These runners stay in my B&B every year. It's always great fun. The race goes past our house.
This looks like a fun event. You house all these runners? Your B&B must be one large place....... I picture B&Bs as, maybe, two to four or five rooms for guests. Most I know of here are that.
@aglennc@happypat@aglennc@happypat We have just 2 B&B rooms in the house but we also have a self catering cottage adjacent to the house. On this particular weekend each year the house and the cottage are full and EVERYONE wants breakfast!! 12 this year!! It really is good fun and a fabulous atmosphere.
Great collage, it seems amazing that men have out run the horses at all. A busy time for you but must be nice catching up with the guests each and imagine there's a lot of banter going on.
