The SportsShoe Podium Home Nations 5km has quickly become a highlight of the Welsh road competition calendar. It provides athletes with a great opportunity to compete against very strong athletes on a fast course, and to challenge themselves against other representative teams. Well done to all the athletes selected, and best of luck with your preparations and I look forward to seeing you compete.
