During our conference weekend we held our Run Wales awards as part of the Welsh Athletics annual awards ceremony.
Huge thanks to all the nominations we received for our amazing groups and leaders, we know there are so many amazing people out there!
Run Wales Group of the year
The Run Wales Group of the Year are a group that have been a lifeline to its members throughout the trials and tribulations of COVID. They are an all including running club who are always friendly and welcoming, and offer regular sessions led by helpful, knowledgeable and caring run leaders who have helped many rediscover their love of running. Our winners are the wonderful Vale Runners.
Run Wales Run Leader of the year
The Run Wales Leader of the Year is a member of She Runs Cardiff. Described as someone who has fostered confidence, support and friendship amongst the group, she can be found inspiring women to their running journey through the Couch25K programme, many of whom go on to be established runners. It is of course the extremely dedicated, Sharon Eckley.
Run Wales Inspiration Award
The Run Wales Inspiration Award goes to a lady who has been a total inspiration to all. Her overwhelming passion and encouragement has instilled a sense of being able to achieve anything in the runners she coaches and she has been a constant boost to their wellbeing and self-esteem. It is, the truly inspirational Katie Brickle!
Congratulations to all our winners, and thank you for bringing such amazing supporters to the Awards Dinner!
