Young Running Talent In York
31 July 2011
Up to 400 children laced up their trainers on Sunday to take part in the first Arena Group York Junior and Mini Run, showing the adults how it’s done.
Setting off first, the juniors aged nine to fourteen years took on the 2.5Km course where James Micklewaite and Rowan Palmour crossed the finish line to claim 1st place in the boy and girl catergories.
Here’s the full run down of our Junior winner’s;
Boy’s winners
1st – James Micklewaite
2nd – Charlie Stead
3rd – Joshua Dickinson
Girl’s winners
1st Rowan Palmour
2nd – Saskia Lewis
3rd – Ellisa Oakley
Hot on the heels of our junior runner were hundreds of mini runners who took on the challenge with their parents. A huge thank you must go to event sponsors, The Arena Group, it’s with their support entry was free and every child received a fantastic medal and goody bag.
Thanks to the amazing response the run will be back next year! Watch this space for when you can sign up for 2012!
