All races are chip timed by Timing Up North and junior events are included. Race numbers must be collected on the day from Race HQ at the Royal Grammar School NE2 4DX and will not be posted. Race HQ and the Start/Finish are walking distance from each other; the Lambton Road entrance is requested for access. Jesmond Metro is a short walk from the event and local parking around the school is advised to be used responsibly.
Prize payments and vouchers are listed for top finishers, with cash prizes for the top three and additional vouchers for placings.
