The GCS has generously sponsored athletes from the Region Three area for the upcoming Gladston Hopkinson 5k AMD one-mile race happening on May 14. This sponsorship will provide much-needed support to the athletes and contribute to the success of the event.

The Gladston Hopkinson 5k AMD one-mile race, organised by Carifta goal medallist, Gladston Hopkinson, through the Athletics Association of Guyana (AAG), has become a highly regarded event in the country’s athletic calendar. Spanning from Goed Fortuin to Nimes (region no. 3), the race offers a unique combination of athleticism, intense competition, as well as community involvement.

Participants and spectators alike can expect a thrilling experience as they witness the blend of athleticism and unity on display during the race.

The one-mile distance, although concise, presents a challenging opportunity for runners to showcase their speed, endurance, and determination.

The 5k AMD One-mile road race aims to inspire and encourage participants to achieve their personal best by providing a platform for athletes to come together and push their limits.

With the generous support of the GCS and the dedication of organiser Gladston Hopkinson, the event is poised to be a resounding success.
