The Middlesbrough Half Marathon, now in its second year, is known for its fast, flat course and fantastic support, making it a popular choice for runners aiming to achieve personal bests. This year, six Blaydon Harriers took on the challenge and delivered some remarkable performances.
The race kicked off in Centre Square, taking runners through Albert Park, past Riverside Stadium, and around the docks, before finishing back at the Town Hall. With a vibrant atmosphere, it made for a great experience for everyone involved.
A huge congratulations to all our athletes who completed the race:
Alex Muir – 1:13:07 (7th in V35 category, 19th overall)
