Mermaid 10K - Marske - 10th April
5 members of Newton Aycliffe Athletics Club had a nice morning at the seaside on Good Friday as they ran in the Mermaid 10k road race at Marske. The light wind made the running hard along the two stretches of promenade and the last km along the straight coastal road to the finish but the sunny weather and a flat course helped everyone to enjoy the race. First home was Julia Atkinson-Tait (41:35), followed by Janet Raper (45:46), Janet McRae (47:37), Dave McKenzie (49:01) and Trish Kay (49:04). Click here for photos.
