The opening fixture of 2022/23 Start Fitness North East Harrier League season at Wrekenton saw over 1,350 athletes competing across the 10-race programme including more than 100 under 11's.
For some competitors this was their first foray into cross country and the undulating course gives a taste of what to expect, but without the cold and mud that prevails in the later months.
