Tidal Trails

Tidal Trails is a unique running event held on the beach at South Shields, combining trail running with a vibrant festival atmosphere. Participants can choose from an 8K trail run that starts and finishes on the beach, featuring a scenic route that climbs to the iconic Leas overlooking the sea, or a shorter 2km run ideal for beginners and younger runners. The event also includes a Super Sand Sprint challenge, where runners race barefoot across the sand.

Families can join Paula Radcliffe’s Families on Track continuous relay, designed for all ages and abilities. Alongside the races, the event offers beach games, live music, entertainment, and food and drink, making it a fun, inclusive day for everyone.
