Track & Field Event Results Round-Up (18th June - 26th June)

The latest track and field and road fixtures were held between Saturday 18th June and Sunday 26th June, where Swansea, Bedford, Carmarthen, Salem, Felinfach and Cheltenham hosted events as the summer campaign reached the half way mark.

Jessica Lee entered the England Athletics U15 & U17 Combined Events Championships at Bedford Stadium. Competing in the heptathlon - seven events over two days - Lee was victorious in the under 17 women's age group with 4,656 points, first in the 200m and long jump events and picking up three new personal bests along the way.

The Welsh Athletics Event Specific Open Meetings returned in the middle of June after two competitions at Cardiff last month. First up was the Sprints, Hurdles & Jumps Events Meeting for under 17, under 20 and seniors at a wet Swansea.

Twenty-two Carmarthen Harriers athletes were able to compete on their home track at a league fixture for the first time this season when the Welsh Athletics Endurance & Jumps Open Meeting was held in midweek at the Leisure Centre Track four days later on Wednesday 22nd June. Almost 100 athletes from clubs across Wales and further afield took part in the disciplines on offer - 800m, 1500m, 3K Walk, Steeplechase, Long Jump and Pole Vault.

Also returning on Wednesday 22nd June was the annual Ammanford Junior Fun Run at the Recreation Ground, organised by the local club Amman Valley Harriers and sponsored by Healthy Life Activities. There were races for reception children up to year 7 and 8.

Other fun runs during the same week was the Salem 5K near Llandeilo and the Felinfach fun run for both juniors and seniors.

Under 17 and under 20 athletes were competing as part of the West Wales composite team at the third Youth Development League Midland Premier South/West Division fixture of the 2022 season, run as a double-header with the South/West A Division in Cheltenham.
