Congratulations to little athletes that competed at the Tuggeranong cross country carnival this week. Well done for making it through from the school cross country competitions.
Great to see this success story from a former Canberra little athlete - second at the Stawell Gift. Clare De Salis started Little Athletics at the age of 8 "and it went from there". Her goal is to compete in the 200m race at the Olympics.

Great quote from T13 5000m silver medallist Jaryd Clifford who trains in the ACT: "running has changed my life. Sport is about more than medals".

Does your centre need safety, sport or volunteer equipment? 3 ACT and region centres have applied to help fund new equipment and it would be great to see other centres benefit from this program.

Fantastic work by former Woden Little Athletics Club member Patty Mills who scored 42 points and lead Australia to a historic bronze medal. Enjoy the moment Mills and the Boomers!

Great to hear the interviewer mention Jessica Hull's journey from little athletics to the 1500m final with the best in the world. Well done to Jessica and Linden Hall!
Amazing work by Canberra based Aussie Kelsey-Lee Barber on bronze in the javelin, and leading the trio of Aussies into the top 8 in the final. This is the first time that Australia has had three athletes in a field event final.
Great to see the first Canberra Weekly little athletics ad. They will be a regular feature over three months.
Peter Bol's fellow athlete & training partner Joseph Deng: "doing sport and athletics that's how we made friends".
