Team Announcement - London Mini Marathon
16/04/2026 00:00, I Mewn Blog /
Congratulations to the 38 athletes selected to represent Welsh Athletics at the London Mini Marathon – 25th April 2026 London, England.
The mini marathon is one of the highlights of the junior competition calendar. It is a fantastic competition, and a great development opportunity for our promising Welsh endurance athletes. I congratulate all athletes selected, and wish them all the best of luck for the competition. For those who did not make the team on this occasion, there are many very successful senior athletes who failed to make junior teams. Keep motivated, keep progressing, and there are many exciting opportunities ahead.
