The NECAA Cross Country Championship took place on Saturday, 14 December 2024, at Temple Park, a renowned venue for cross-country running in the North East. This highly anticipated event draws clubs and athletes from across the region to compete in a challenging and exciting display of endurance and determination.
Our fantastic young athletes represented Blaydon Harriers with exceptional performances, proving to be an absolute credit to the club. It was particularly inspiring to see the strong finishes the coaches have been focusing on in training come to fruition. Every runner gave it their all, showcasing resilience and competitive spirit on the course.
Unfortunately, the event clashed with the seniors' Christmas celebration, which meant some of our senior athletes couldn’t attend to support on the day. Nevertheless, the festive spirit was still felt, and we’re proud of everyone who represented the club so brilliantly.
A huge well done to all participants and supporters who braved the conditions to cheer on the team. Days like this highlight the dedication and talent within our club. See you all at the next event!
