All proceeds from the charity run will go to the North West Mountain Rescue Team, who have a base in the village, from which they undertake their valuable life-saving role.
Lexie Scott, Broughshane & District Community Association, said: “We are delighted to be involved with this new event which we hope will become an annual run, supporting the terrific work of the North West Mountain Rescue Team.”
Stephen Brown. Secretary of Ballymena Runners, added: “Thank you to Broughshane & District Community Association for supporting the race. We run throughout the local countryside. The NWMRT support us 24/7. It’s great to be supporting them.”
