We had some great performances at the Anndale track meeting and some of us ventured to the seaside in Newcastle and Portaferry for a run. There’s been some right royal racing at Hillsborough and some of us have been doing the double in Castleblaney.

Despite the hot day Ballymena Runners were out in force on Saturday on the scenic slopes of Carntogher mountain for the An Carn 5k.

A superb performance sees Jamie Scott win the RAF Benevolent Fund Ulster 5k race in Coleraine. William Fleck and Mark Alexander took part in the Carnaween IMRA/NIMRA Ulster Championship Mountain Race in Donegall.

Ballymena Runners organised a colour run at Eaton Park and helped raise £500 for Ballymena Rugby Football Club's Mini Rugby Squad. Around 100 local children had a great afternoon as they took part in the colour run followed by a BBQ.

Congratulations to Stephen Gage who won the Carnlough Quarry 5k race. There were also strong performances from Nigel McClintock and Robert Clyde in this out and back course. Meanwhile, up in Portrush, Cherith Wright had a brilliant 3rd place in the Bob and Berts 10k. And there was a bit of a birthday party…….

A sunny afternoon at Slemish College saw over 100 pupils and staff take part in one of our community Colour Runs. The fun filled event helped raise awareness and £1,245 for the Alzheimer’s Society.

It was medals and PB’s galore for the club at the Mary Peters Track in the Masters Track and Field Championships. With 6wins from 6b races William Fleck wins his age category in the Hill and Dale series. Meanwhile in Belfast our ladies put in strong performances at the Moy Park Belfast City Women's 10k.
