For a second day in a row Tyne Bridge were represented by a strong contingent of members at a local running event. Following a fantastic showing at Newcastle parkrun on Christmas Day, the Boxing Day Woodlawn Pudding Fun Run was supported by numerous Tyne Bridge harriers and contributed towards a great turn-out. The annual event, superbly organised by North Shields Poly running …

Despite the sodden footpaths, drizzly conditions and stiff breeze blowing across the moor, over 200 runners still took part in Saturday’s Newcastle parkrun event. Which just goes to show what some people will do to get out of early morning Christmas shopping!! Well done to all the club members who took part in parkrun at the weekend, either running or volunteering, …

Normally, standing around in pouring rain and getting battered from bitterly cold winds wouldn’t rank high on my list of ‘things to do on a Saturday afternoon’, but last Saturday was the exception to the rule. Watching so many club members take part in Saltwell Harriers annual 10K Road Race was a joy to behold (although I’m not sure …

The NEHL 2011/12 season was a great success for Tyne Bridge Harriers, with the Men’s team being promoted to Division 2 and the Ladies winning promotion to Division 1. And as we head into the second half of the 2012/13 season it appears the TBH success bandwagon keeps on rolling, with both the men and women topping their respective divisions. Hear’s to a …

If you’re like me and tend to overdo it with the chocolates over the festive period then why not take part in this fell race a few days after Christmas. It is 11k (approximately 7 miles), and the course consists of 1 x 4.6k lap and 1 x 6.4k lap. There …

Well done to all those who took part in this year’s Simonside Cairns Fell Race, situated just outside of Rothbury. Although weather conditions were fine for running, the same couldn’t be said for conditions underfoot. To describe them as ghastly would be an understatement of the highest order. Snow, ice, waist deep bogs and foot …

It was somewhat fitting that Tyne Bridge’s annual Christmas Party/Presentation Evening should fall on another remarkable day in the club’s short history. But that is another story, this one is to honour and celebrate the great achievements by both the club and its members in 2012. Congratulations to all the award winners listed below. Winter …

On a busy weekend of racing, several members found time to participate in their local parkrun event. In Newcastle, 5 members tackled the Town Moor clarts, and having been present at both Newcastle parkrun and the Cross-country at Blaydon, I’d say the parkrunners had the worst of the conditions. Poor things Michael Hancock …

In the lead up to Saturday’s Newcastle parkrun, the town moor was hit by several sleet showers and the organisors were left with the difficult decision of whether to go ahead with the event. Thankfully they agreed it could, on the proviso that the runners used their common sense (runners and common sense?), and even though the course was …

Well done to all the members who took part in this year’s Newcastle Stampede race, particularly Kev Jeffress who, despite running the wrong way for almost 1k, still came home in 1st position. Stephen Dixon finished in 10th position and Peter Kennedy 17th, both of whom followed Kev as he went the wrong way. Back for a third year after completely …
