The South Shields 10 Mile returns for its 9th year along the beautiful coastline of South Shields. The event is highly regarded in the North East running calendar and a great benchmark of fitness before the Great North Run in September.
The event is renowned for its friendly & supportive community atmosphere and we welcome runners of all abilities to take part.
THANK YOU for supporting our small local business & running club, Run Eat Sleep. All of the organising team and volunteers are local runners & friends and we'd like to thank them for their support in helping to stage the event.
"What a wonderful race! Thank you to the organisers and all who helped out at the race! A fabulous event & one to remember!"
Starting at the idyllic Souter Lighthouse National Trust site, the course heads North along the beautiful South Shields coastline and The Leas before returning. The route is fully marked & marshalled by our amazing volunteer team with fantastic support & refreshments along the way. Look out for beautiful views of Marsden Rock, Frenchman's Bay, Sandhaven Beach & even dolphins swimming by!
Runners will receive a South Shields 10 Mile 2025 medal for taking part (please note that all entries must be made by Wednesday 23rd July to receive a medal. After this date medals can be ordered after the run & sent out). Awards will be provided for first 3 male & female.
