On a very warm Wednesday evening at South Park saw the return of the ‘Run 4 Louis’ 1 mile and 5km events organised by Sam Richardson. This event supports the 4Louis charity which works across the country to support anyone affected by miscarriage, stillbirth and the death of a baby or child. Was great to see the event supported by so many harriers on and off the racing line for such a worthy cause. Big thanks to everyone who supported the event.

Thank you to all of our athletes who took part in the town’s street parade on Saturday, was good to see a mix of club vests getting involved in the spectacle.

Competing in the 20-24 year old sprint event as one of only two brits who made the trip, Jade finished an impressive 12th from the 30 competitors. Jade also took part in the mixed teams event on day 2 clearly making the most of her trip. Great work Jade.

Iain McCulloch is looking to raise £1,000 to raise awareness of suicide in young men – in memory of Andrew Raine and Iain’s brother Alastair. Iain and a group of family and friends are cycling the C2C route across England, during the first week in August. This initiative is in the memory of those young men who have lost their life with proceeds split between Samaritans and Mind with a hope that this money is used to reach out to people who are in a similar position. Tremendous thing to do Iain, well done.
