Well done to Team Lliswerry at today’s @SDFHC Newport Half, those who ran and our 25 volunteers who organised the start & finish. Thanks to Robert Gayle for the photo.
Well done Sandra Chipper for picking up her VF50 gold medal at the Welsh Cross Country Championships today. Also to the VF50, VM35, VM55, VM60 & VM65 for their bronze team prizes. Amazing performances today.
“Easy like Sunday morning”. Just a wonderful start to the day on a biting cold morning but with wonderful people.
A phenomenally quick race by Swansea Harriers Athletics Club winning today, and First Lady over the line is Lizzie Dimond for Lliswerry Runners! Incredible racing today! 💪🇦🇹 #lliswerry8 instagram.com/p/Cnb5v7CIKoB/…
