Well done to Stuart Gowans who competed in and completed the extremely tough Cyprus International 4 Day Challenge. The unique multi-staged running event, covering a total distance 42k, combined a 6k time trial, an 11k (mostly) uphill mountain trail run, a multi-terrain half marathon, and a 10k City Run over four days. Stuart performed strongly in each event, and finished with a total time of 4:02:12, and a very respectable eighth in his age group!

At the prestigious Seeley Cup 10k Road Race, in Belfast, Jana Ross, in only her forth outing for the Club, crossed the line in an impressive 40:32 (PB), to claim the Clubs Ladies 10k record. Marty Kilpatrick, Graeme O’Hara, Natasha Henderson, Andrew Wilson, David Hamill, and Rachel Lloyd (49:03) also gave strong PB-producing performances.
