- Elswick Harriers are proud of their tradition of being the oldest established club in the North East of England, founded in 1889. Over the years we have discovered many successful athletes including three Olympians: Mike Mcleod, Alan Lillington and Alex Burns.
- We pride ourselves on being a friendly club and welcome people of all ages and abilities. Our training sessions are held at Newburn Activity Centre on Tuesday and Thursday evenings 7.15pm till 9.00pm. There are various groups with coaching available at all training sessions. Some members also meet on Sunday mornings for a longer run.
- If you are visiting this site and thinking about getting into running or if you are an established runner but have not joined a club, why not come along to one of our training nights where you will be given a warm welcome.
- Members compete in a very wide range of athletic activities throughout the year. In addition to popular mass events such as London Marathon and Great North Run; individuals and club teams participate in all the local and national road runs as well as track, field and cross country leagues in junior, senior and veteran categories. The club also organises its own races the, Good Friday Relays, the Newburn River Run ( 6.5m ) in June and the Norman Woodcock Memorial 10km at Gosforth Park in December. To find out more about these events visit our Club Events section.
