NQ Games – Athletics

The Festival of Athletics was held last weekend in Townsville in conjunction with the North Queensland Games.

Mackay Athletics Club had an impressive 26 athletes competing, many who brought home medals and some who broke records in the process. Mikayla Webb broke a 100m record while Toby Rule broke a record in the 3000m. Mikayla and Oliver and Toby Rule have also recently been selected in the U18 Regional Australia team to compete next month in the 2022 Oceania Athletics Championships in Mackay.

Here is a small snapshot of the club’s success.
