Green and Golds on tour!

Another week, another list of awesome performances by our Green and Golds on tour.

This week we have another load of belters…

As if completing an Ironman wasn’t enough, just a few weeks later and Andrew Clark took on the ‘Lakes in a Day Ultra’ along with Mark Richardson,Gez Davidson & Rab Gorman.

It sounded horrendous!. It started in Caldbeck at 8am and headed South over 50 miles of mountains and fells to Cartmel, including deep river crossings, swamps, dark forests and near vertical climbs! A lot of top level athletes did not complete the challenge so massive respect to our lads for conquering such a huge event.

Meanwhile in Yorkshire Tim Nic completed a sub 3hr marathon. Absolutely fantastic. Rafa will be so proud!

Our man in France Joe Colligan completed Les 20km de Paris in an impressive 1:26!

Becki Jayne decided x-country just wasn’t enough for one weekend and gave it her all at the Alwinton Show Fell Race the day before Druridge Bay (crazy lady).

Marie Collinson and Emily James completed their 50th Park Runs (feels like I’ve done 500!)

And a massive well done to all the juniors who took part in the Northumberland School Team XC championship at Gateshead. Luke Pichler finished in an amazing 3rd place in the Y4 boys race and Hannah, Adam, Freya, Cara and Hannah also represented their schools. Another proud moment for Wallsend Harriers!

Look out for a full race report on Druridge Bay X-Country coming soon (photos already on the gallery page).
