Newcastle Town Moor Marathon
Not far from Wooler, Lena Conlin returned to Newcastle for the Town Moor Marathon, and in finishing completed her 59th marathon plus distance race. The route is made up of 7 laps on Town Moor, offering a flat route with PB potential. Lena almost broke the 4 hour barrier by taking 8 minutes off her previous best, with a time of 4 hours 4 minutes 55 seconds, but did the course actually measure slightly longer than a marathon at 26.5 miles?
