😌 When arriving to set up, the calmness of the Campbell College grounds was very welcome after the craziness on Belfast streets the previous evening. That calmness was short lived, however, when over 100 participants arrived with smiles and welcomes to all, ready for some fast and furious running whilst trying not to get lost around this stunning school venue.
🧭 So what about the courses? Big thanks to our planner, David Wilson, for setting us the challenge – his excellent knowledge made great use of the area and had us exploring every nook and cranny.
