Just to show that we are staffed by runners and that we practice what we preach, see below a quick report sent by Mic, manager of the Darlington store.

..and the beat definatly goes on, with two more excellant track results for Up&Running Gosforths Jak Lowden
The North East Div 2E Track League was held at Clairville Stadium Middlesbrough, in fresh and *breezy* conditions, this Saturday 7th May.
Jak won the mens 400m in a sparkling 50:22, beating the ex-UK 400m hurdles adept Richard Smith into second with a 1/2 second win - after much puffing and panting and a 80min rest it was time for senior mens 400m relay to close the meet.
Jak was nominated lead off man for the Gateshead team, and help set-up the win with a convincing 1st leg [51.25]that enabled the Gateshead team to clock an impressive 3:28.4 - some 9 seconds up on the second team home.
The Gateshead Squad had very successful Saturday, winning ALL the team events and 90% of tbe individual track and field events.
The North East Track and Field Championships are next weekend at Jak's home track at Gateshead and we see him competing over the senior mens 200m and 400m, we wish him every success.
