A massive congratulations and heartfelt thank you to Portadown Running Club for delivering an absolutely fantastic event at the Portadown Running Festival 👏

From start to finish, it was slick, welcoming, and brilliantly organised — the kind of event that reminds you why the running community is something special ✨

We had a great turnout from our Fitzone Social Running Group, with plenty of first-timers taking on the festival… and smashing it 💥

Nerves at the start line turned into smiles at the finish line — and every single one of them had the same feedback:

👉 “That was unreal — we’ll definitely be back!”

That says it all 🙌

Events like this don’t just happen — they’re built on hard work, volunteers, and a genuine passion for getting people moving. And it showed in every detail 👌

👏 Huge credit again to everyone involved at Portadown Running Club

👟 To our runners — you done Fitzone proud

🔥 And to anyone thinking of signing up next time… do it. You won’t regret it!

P.S. 🍰 A special shoutout to Louise Smyth Lavery for the beautiful scones — the real MVP of recovery fuel! 🙌
