Bellingen High School had 37 runners representing the school and out of those 22 have qualified to represent Mid North Coast at the North Coast Championships at Murwillumbah on June 19.

So again, Bellingen High School students have done amazingly well.

There were also two Champion Teams ( top three runners in each age group from the same school)

12 years boys – Kyan Upsall, Liam McFarlane and Daniel Thornycroft

15 years girls – Willow Neal, Brynne Couper, Sophie Keough and Georga Pregnall

Out of the none schools in the Mid North Coast Zone Bellingen High School came second overall to Woolgoolga.

With all these amazing results the only disappointment was the overall number of runners. In some age divisions we had no runners and in other only one or two. Next year we need to try and have at least three runners in every age group as when you are short you automatically get last place plus 1 in your age group.

However, nothing can be taken away from all the runners that attended and gained fantastic results. We wish all those attending Murwillumbah the best of luck!
