The culminating races for the 2023 road relays, held at the Charlestown Primary school, had to be completed over a period of two days.
The grades 5 and 6 girls ran on the afternoon of Tuesday 17th but rain prevented the holding of the final race.
Therefore, the grades 5 and 6 boys had their race the following morning-Wednesday 18th January.
For the girls, Red house took a decisive first place, but the boys’ event proved to be more eventful
As the Blue house athlete moved towards the finish line, visibly tired, the Green House athlete was making a late bid to overtake, when he was tripped by a bystander.
He got back to his feet and completed the race, but the Blue House athlete had already crossed the finish line.
