BVI Olympic Committee President Rey O’Neal hailed the event as a success.

“We have been holding these races for the past eight or so years and this year it was a success even though I thought we could have gotten more participants. Some of our senior athletes did not participate because they are preparing for other events,” O’Neal stated.

The BVI Olympic Committee organized event received support from the Department of Youth Affairs and Sports, Blenheim Trust and TICO, Softball, Athletics, Cycling, Squash, Football and Tennis.
