(1)About Running in Tyne and Wear on Verus
Verus tracks 5 races across Tyne and Wear at 5 different distances — 1 5K, 1 half marathon, 1 ultra marathon, 1 marathon and 1 10K. Few counties give you that much choice of what to actually run.
Racing in Tyne and Wear comes in clusters rather than a steady drip: 4 months carry a date, and September carries the most of them. Plan a build around that shape rather than assuming something is always a few weeks out.
The weekly running here is bigger than the race calendar implies: Tyne and Wear has 14 parkruns, free and every Saturday. Where races are few, that is where most of the running community actually gathers.
If nothing here fits your dates, the fullest calendars Verus covers elsewhere are London (39 races), Hertfordshire (30 races) and Kent (26 races).
