Defence Force Wins Half Island Run Relay

On Saturday, March 23rd, the Nevis Chapter of SKN Moves hosted its annual half-island run relay.

Three teams were competing: Defence Force, Ministry of Health, and TDC.

The race began in Brick Kiln village and had baton stations in Butlers, Fothergills, market shop, brown Hill Gap, and ended at the Fit Wellness Park.

The Defence Force team was in excellent form and won the race in a record time of 52 minutes. The Ministry of Health and TDC teams had a close battle, and they were almost tied up at the Fothergills handover.

However, at Market Shop, the TDC representative pulled ahead and secured second place. Ms. Shelagh James, the chief coordinator of the event, thanked all the participants for their efforts and the sponsors – Ministry of Health, Nevis Spring Water, Red Cross, and the Police – for their tremendous support in making the event a success.
