Christmas came early for Rory Tait in the form of a very generous pre-race handicap. And he took full advantage of his present by storming to victory a full minute ahead of the 2nd placed finisher Colin Rogerson.
Completing the first three finishers was Marie Costello, repeating her 3rd place finish from race 2.
In spite of the cool, breezy conditions along the quayside, there were some fantastic times, with many runners posting season or personal bests for the race. Click here for details
Quickest time of the evening went to a guest runner from Saltwell Harriers, Abraham Tewelde, who posted a time of 16:28. And Kathryn Stevenson set the quickest ladies time, with 20.21.
With work still continuing on Newcastle Guildhall, organisors had to use the alternative out-and-back route along the quayside, and it’s with great thanks to all the volunteering members that the race passed without incident.
All being well, the next race is scheduled for Tuesday, 9th January 2018.
