East Antrim Marathon Series Knockagh Challenge

On Saturday the latest EAMS race took place which was an Ultra marathon totalling 31 miles. Two of our athletes competed, Andy Belshaw and Donald Smith. Their accounts of the race:

Andy Belshaw-

Completed my 1st ultra marathon today covering 50kms in 4hrs 9mins. This included 3 monster climbs up the knockagh road to the monument. Finished 2nd place which was a bonus as I paced nicely and steady to the end.

Donald Smith-

Ultra marathon completed – 31.5 miles / 50km with over 2500ft of ascent following a course from Greenisland up to the Knockagh monument 3 times. Mr T himself will want some of the latest EAMS bling round his neck.
