Ackley Heads had a reputation for being a tough gig and it certainly didn’t disappoint!
Some strong performances from all categories, especially the team captains who were both the number one scorers for the green and golds.
Extremely muddy conditions lead to falling runners, tears, lost spikes but a tremendously positive sense of achievement and wellbeing. Bring on next week at Druridge Bay!

The final pounds are in and we are delighted to announce this year’s fundraising total for the Toby Run is £4,081.06
This means that over eight years Wallsend Harriers has raised a staggering £28,000 for St. Oswald’s Hospice!
Thank-you to everyone who took part and supported us. What a fantastic achievement.
We have two places for the 2016 Virgin London Marathon up for grabs. Anyone interested should put their name down on the board at the club on a Tuesday or Thursday night at Hadrian Leisure Centre. The successful two will be drawn at the Christmas Party on December 12th at Lindisfarne Social Club.
After a delayed start to the race, thanks to a ferocious ferret (I’m not kidding!), Emily beats off last month’s winner Lyndsey Broderick to take the victory. Mark Summers stormed around to finish in 3rd place. Son Matty, finished first junior.
