Training Run – 23rd September 2025

by peter cOULTHARD

We had fading light as the Wooler Tuesday evening trails season draws to a close for another year. What a beautiful evening galloping around the Gallops.

Five of us set out from the car park with Nick taking a shorter route back down. The cool crisp air pushed us up towards Humbleton with barely a cloud to be seen, only those starting to form on the tops of Cheviot and Hedgehope, threatening to possibly descend for the evening.

We quick-footed off the fell tracks onto the road for a run back to the cars, eking the most out of the setting sunlight and made it back with light to spare – we might need the torches with us next week though. These crisp crystal-clear evenings really reveal how trail running can be so rewarding.
