Not so long ago, in a remote part of Northumberland… David Beech continued his winning streak by coming first in Humbleton Fell Race, 20th June.
Just days after his success at Bamburgh 10k, David proved his mettle by not only fending off some strong challengers and emerging victorious, but also setting a new course record in the process.
David was one of several Tyne Bridge members who travelled to Hayden Bridge for this event.
