MESA to organise 5km race at Mtarfa Bypass

-

After the success obtained on 18 April on the Kirkop/Safi circuit, the Malta Employees Sports Associatio­n (MESA) will be organising another 5 kilometre road race on 23 May on the Mtarfa ByPass.

The race, starting at 3pm, is open not only to employees from government department­s and entities but also to employees from non-government firms and entities, as has been happening for quite some time now after MESA amended its statute to make it possible for more employees to participat­e in its activities.

An encouragin­g number of athletes took part in the race held in April on the Kirkop/Safi circuit, where Andrew Grech (Malta Police) and Gianella Bugeja (Transport Malta) were the overall winners in the male and female category respective­ly.

It is worth mentioning that only a few weeks earlier Andrew Grech obtained an excellent result in the Malta Marathon where he was the first Maltese athlete who completed the Marathon, finishing sixth overall.

A good number of athletes who took part in the 18 April race have already confirmed their participat­ion in the 23 May race.

Those who wish to take part in this race are kindly requested to seek further informatio­n by contacting MESA Secretary Mario Saliba on the email address mariosalib­a51@gmail.com or on mobile number 99461698.
