Just over 3 weeks to go until this year’s Druridge Bay 10k and Junior Run on Sunday 29th May 2022, 10.30am.
The Druridge Bay 10k and Junior Run (Entry Adults £21 Juniors £6) is now firmly established in the annual sporting
calendar and is an event that people return to each year.
We are returning to the usual date of 29th May 2022. With a total of 500 entries that sell out quickly, it’s proven to be
one of the most popular runs in Northumberland.
Over the years it has attracted all levels of runners from Olympians to fun runners. Many people have graduated up
from their local 5k parkrun to this longer distance, and keep coming back each year.
The race sees runners compete around the stunning Druridge Bay Country Park including a memorable section along the gorgeous beach.
Registration is now open – you can register here
 
Please enter early to avoid disappointment, a medal will be given to all participants. We are keeping our new route
which starts on the beach, as we received excellent feedback from last year’s participants. 
 
The Junior Run is also now open for entries- 9.30am on Sunday 29th May 2022 if you know of any schools/ clubs
who may be interested in putting in some teams - please do get in touch - earthur@hospicecare-nn.org.uk
