The Telford Electric Magic Mile took place at the National Sports Center on Saturday [Feb 23], with hundreds of children taking part as their parents and family cheered them on.

The races were divided into age groups, and winners for the day included Akim Johnston, Rebecca Harrison, Jayden Ming, Ashley Irby, T’Syi Showers, Jade Johnston, Dean Lottimore, Stefan Jones, and Jesse Johnston.

Malikah Tankard, Asia-Leigh Hollis, Oliver Verster, Zano Tucker, Bakari Furbert, Shemya DeShield, Amayah Burt, Lakai Drummond, Jaden Simons, Alexander Rymon-Lipinski, Sebastian Smith, Chloe Botelho, J’Naz Richards, Tyrah Parris, Dakari Smith-Davis, Daylen Scott, Syhon Goater, Saony Trott, Brooke Castree and Alay Burgess Rocker also won their categories.

Another champion of the day was little Dakari Saunders, who has Cerebral Palsy and ran a modified distance. Dakari crossed the finish line with a huge smile on his face as the crowd cheered him on. In a post last night on Bernews, his dad said Dakari said it was “his best day ever,” and was still wearing his medal that evening.
