Next up we had a highly competitive Category to see who would be crowned Female Runner of the Year.

We had some amazing athletes, from the incredibly quick to people with the most amazing endurance.

This Award was supported by Thompson Travel International and Director Sharon Thompson was on hand to present the Award.

The winner of this Award was the incredible Jill Mccann who ran 5000 miles in 2019 and was overall winner of the Belfast to Dublin Return. An unrivaled endurance athlete and a popular athlete in the running community. Her next challenge is to complete 48 hours run on a 400m track!

Our thanks to Thompson Travel International who were very generous to support the inaugural Spirit of Running Gala Awards.
