Congratulations to the eight athletes selected to represent Welsh Athletics at the Antrim Coast Half Marathon - Sunday 23 August, Antrim Coast, Northern Ireland


Steve Mitchell - National Talent Development Coordinator - Endurance

This is the first year we have sent a Welsh team to the Antrim Coast Half Marathon. It is an incredibly high standard competition, and it will be great to see how the Welsh team performs against teams from England, Scotland, Ireland and the hosts Northern Ireland, as well as against top level international athletes. We wish all athletes selected the best of luck with their preparations and look forward to seeing how they perform.
