Brendan Wilson, Road Running coach and volunteer
What has been your proudest or happiest moment with CoNAC, and why?
Too many to single out! I’m really proud and happy every time an event goes off without a hitch. Seeing the runners from all clubs and abilities crossing the line, hitting their personal goals.
This picture captures the spirit of the support crews on half marathon race day. Terrible weather but all there for the greater good, smiling and putting in a shift.
What does being part of CoNAC/the sport of athletics mean to you?
A bit of a cliché but being part of a like minded group of people and in my role as coach and volunteer, putting something back into the sport and seeing other people enjoy and improve.
What advice would you give to those new to the sport?
Be patient.
Listen to your coaches and the experienced runners.
Enjoy yourself!
