Judging by Newcastle parkrun’s record attendance at the weekend, it appears quite a few people have made running on a Saturday morning their New Year’s resolution for 2013, so I wish them all the best for seeing it through the entire year. Tyne Bridge had 21 members taking part at Newcastle (out of 403 runners), …

Well done to club members GEMMA BRADY and GAIL ALLAN for taking part in this year’s BUPA Great Winter Run in Edinburgh. The 5K race was one of a number of events on the day, and given the nature of the course (“the hills were hardcore” said Gemma afterwards), both ladies are to be congratulated. Gemma’s time …

Well done to all the club members who took part in the annual Resolution Run which raised around £2000 for St. Oswalds Hospice and Water Aid. It was a crisp, cool and dry day, with a breeze pushing everyone around the wet & muddy Newcastle Town Moor course, and the club had reason to celebrate with Kym Eden finishing 3rd …

When it got to 8:30am on Christmas morning and the only people at Newcastle parkrun were myself, Ian Kirtley (Newcastle Event Director) and a couple other volunteers, we began to wonder whether anybody would be turning up to run, especially as the constant drizzle had washed away any hopes of a white christmas. But as is usually the …

A big hearty well done to David Beech, David Daniels, James Knox, Sparrow Morley and Stephanie McFarlane for completing this year’s Guisborough Woods Fell Race. Not only did they have a challenging course to contend with, but a chilly easterly wind meant they couldn’t stand around for too long for fear of freezing to death. The recent poor …

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.

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 …

With the holiday season upon us, a few TBH members have returned home to be with their families and as a consequence we’re seeing results from parkrun events we’d rarely get to see. Well done to all the members who ran at a parkrun event on Saturday. Results for Newcastle parkrun, …

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 …
