Run Northumberland Kirkharle Shepherds Trail 10k / Half Marathon & Capability Brown Junior 2k

Sun 26th January 2025

A group of runners competes in a road race on a narrow rural path. The lead runner wears a numbered bib, followed by others, all bundled in winter gear. The surrounding landscape is sparse, with patches of snow and overcast skies. Two runners in winter attire hold trophies and smile at the finish line of a race. The ground is lightly covered in snow, and an inflatable finish arch is visible in the background. A woman is running with a smile and a thumbs-up gesture, wearing athletic gear. The image promotes the Shepherds Trail 10K & Half Marathon taking place at Kirkharle on Sunday, 26th January 2025, starting at 10:00 am. Entry details are provided.
