A fantastic day was had by all as a record 780 runners turned out at Whitley Bay Links on Boxing Day to run the 3.1 miles of the Xmas Pudding Run. Tyne Bridge Harriers had a superb presence at the run with 17 runners taking part in the Charity Fun Run event. In blustery conditions, the field of Boxing Day Athletes took on the 3.1 miles along
Merry Christmas from everyone at Tyne Bridge Harriers !!
MERRY CHRISTMAS everybody. We hope you have enjoyed our build up to Christmas 2011 with an insight to some of the club athletes (named Dave) at Tyne Bridge Harriers. We conclude with another ChristMISS ‘Dave’, Ladies Club Champion 2011/12 ‘Dave’ Willis
Tyne Bridge Harriers will be turning out for the annual Xmas Pudding Run in Whitley Bay on Boxing Day Monday 26th December 2011. The popular run is jointly organised by Woodlawn Parents & Friends Association (WPFA) and North Shields Polytechnic Running Club
It’s Christmas Eve and today we have our penultimate Dave Of Christmas or in this case ChristMISS as we get the low down on one of our female ‘Daves’.. TBH Ladies Captain, Dave Waugh. I am not really a ‘Dave’ but the other Daves of Christmas have inspired me to become one (temporarily for the purposes of this article!)
There are several Tyne Bridge Harriers meeting up on Sunday morning for a steady Christmas Morning Run of approximately 8.5 miles. Meeting at the Station Road Roundabout in Wallsend (see map below) at 07:50 for a 08:00 start.
It’s almost Christmas !! .. and we continue the countdown with one of TBH’s respected club athletes who is more than proud to wear the Black N White TBH Vest (as long as there is a little bit of red in it).. Mr ‘Dave’ Murray
Please note that there will be NO TRACK SESSION on […]
The Daves continue and our countdown to Christmas is nearing it’s finale. Today’s ‘Dave’ is a well known name face.. and voice in the North East Running scene.. especially renamed for this feature, please give a Christmas welcome to the one & only ‘Dave’ Baker
I started running when I was at school doing x- country and 1500m, as I got older the distances became shorter until I was running no further than 400m. When I was old enough to enter public houses the running stopped, I did do 5 GNR in my late teens/early twenties with little or no training....
Unlike some other Dave’s my running history goes back quite a few years. I was one of those who were bitten by the first Great North Run Bug back in 1981. I was 17 and it was something new and a bit different. The running boom was just beginning to gather a bit of momentum and we were going to have a massive race in our own back yard and I thought I could be part of it.
Today, on Dave 5 of our ‘run up to Christmas’, Dave Young gives us an insight into why he became a runner. When I was a teenager I wasn’t really interested in athletics, I grew up in Whitley Bay and used to spend a lot of my free time fishing.
Dave Moir has stayed up especially late tonight to type up and send in this report from todays Saltwell 10K
Dave #4 already and we hope you are enjoying the festive fun. In the build up to the big day, we are celebrating everything that is DAVE in our 12 Dave’s of Christmas. Today we have managed to get a few words from our ‘very shy and retiring’ TBH Head Coach .. Mr Dave Anderson
Don’t forget to pick up your copy of the fantastic Northern Running Guide. This edition features the story of our multi-talented and awesome ultra distance runner Mark Allison (Run Geordie Run) and why he decided to join Tyne Bridge Harriers.
Our Festive Frivolity continues as we reach Dave #3 in our 12 Dave’s of Christmas feature. Todays article has been especially produced by Dave Moir. The rarest and possibly less well known Dave of Christmas, is the Embleton.
On Saturday 10th December, The very first Tyne Bridge Harriers Presentation Evening took place at The Police Club in Toon.
Our second installment of our Seasonal Feature, The 12 Dave’s Of Christmas continues today with our very own Club Treasurer .. Mr. Dave Moir
