Race 6 - Bridges of the Tyne 5 Mile – Tue 9th July 2013
So we gathered on Newcastle Quayside on a hot sticky
evening for the sixth race of this year's Grand Prix, The Bridges of the Tyne 5
Mile event hosted by Tyne Bridge Harriers. Dressed in running gear we were
obtaining strange glances from the multitudes of people just strolling or
cycling along the Quayside on such a pleasant evening, not to mention the
hundreds sitting in the numerous bars.
With this many people around it looked as though the race was going to
be chaotic, but apart from a congested start, good marshalling ensured that the
race progressed very smoothly.
Starting
on the north of the river between the Tyne and Millennium Bridges the route
takes the runners west along the Quayside before turning at the Newcastle
Business Park and returning eastwards to finish on the Quayside adjacent to the
mouth of the Ouseburn, running under or past seven of
the bridges of the Tyne.
First
back of the 35 Blyth runners taking part was Jake in an excellent 11th position
with a time of 29:10, closely followed 3 seconds later by Peter Brown. First Blyth female was Heather Christopher in
88th overall in 33:57, both Peter and Heather were second in their respective
age categories.
