WHATs ON - RUNNING EVENTS - SPOND

Treasure Hunt Run – 27 July, 5pm – Preston Park
A team-based treasure hunt with running, silliness, and maybe a drink after at The Locomotion.

Teams will get a list of 10 things – like local landmarks, random objects, or daft tasks (think: group photo acting out a film scene, or counting how many eagles fit on a slide).

You won’t get the list until the day, so you’ll have 5–10 minutes to plan your route. Everything should be within about 4 miles. Teams must stick together and be back in an hour with photo evidence. Bonus points for creativity (and questionable acting).

Trail Run Course – Starts 24 July
Weekly sessions to build trail running skills.

Great North Run – 7 September
Coach from The Eagle Inn.
First stop: Wetherspoons for a cuppa (or a pint – call it race prep).
Then we walk to the official bag drop where the group splits:

  • Official runners head to the start line

  • Alternative runners head to their next Wetherspoons (because what’s a race without a pub crawl?)

Everyone meets at the finish line for more drinks – at this rate, we’ll need a hydration station staffed by bar staff.
