2021 NEHL Wrekenton

Start of the senior mens race, North East Harrier League, Wrekenton, Saturday, 25th September, 2021

It’s not often cross country running in England has athletes in sun glasses, crop tops and trail shoes but the opening event of the 21/22 season will be remembered for the heat, hard baked ground and return to competition.

Not a sight you would normally associate with cross country running in England but Wrekenton in early September 2021 is more like an African savannah.
