An experience of a lifetime

Three in three! Trinidad’s Nicholas Romany was the toast of this weekend’s Run Barbados festivities after he completed an unprecedented ‘Triple Crown’, winning the PWC Fun Mile, the Casuarina 10K, and the Sand Dunes Half Marathon event.

These are the words I’d use to describe this year’s Run Barbados Marathon weekend, which I had the privilege to be a part of on the scenic island, which is world-renowned for its festive atmosphere and spirit of camaraderie.

A staple on Barbados’ calendar of events since its inception in 1983, the fixture sewn in the fabric of the Bajan culture celebrated its 40th edition from December 8–10.

The Run Barbados Marathon weekend, which has distinguishing characteristics that will leave lifelong memories, took the runners, casual and professional, through some of the island’s most historical landmarks.

It was truly a unique three-day experience filled with fun, food, and entertainment for the entire family.
