England Under 20 team announced for Cardiff 5k

England Athletics are pleased to announce the team for the Cardiff 5k which will take place on Sunday 4 May. Last year's high quality field saw six personal bests from the England team members so this is regarded as a great development opportunity.

This year the event is also the Welsh 5k championships so there is sure to be the usual fantastic atmosphere plus many athletes striving for their best performances.

National Endurance Manager (Off Track) Tom Craggs said:

"It's a great chance for our under 20 runners to make their mark in this fast event and gain the experience of competing for England in a top quality race."
