Competition and friendly rivalry on Sunday afternoon saw Running Brave Athletics Club running away with the lion’s share of prizes at the inaugural Caricom relay, coordinated by the Ministry of Education’s Department of Sports in collaboration with the Athletics Association of Guyana and several sponsors.
The National Park was abuzz as teams comprising five persons each competed in several categories to claim the various trophies and medals at stake.
Running Brave claimed three first places and a runner-up spot in the four divisions that were contested.
Running Brave athletes were unstoppable in the Male and Female Open categories, subjecting Police to a second place in both divisions, while they also won the Junior Male competition. Linden and Police took second and third respectively.
However, Linden turned the table on Running Brave in the Junior Female showdown. There were also events for the masters athletes, while the novelty race was won by comedian Lyndon “Jumbie” Jones ahead of Leslie Black and Joseph Rajkumar.
The event was sponsored by Banks DIH Limited, Payless Variety Store, Mohabeer Cambio, Star Party Rentals, Real Value Supermarket and Fullworks’ Seasoning and Blue Spring Water.
The organisers expressed gratitude for the support of those entities, spectators and athletes who all combined to ensure a successful inaugural event.
