💙 Jesmond Joggers Invitational 💙

Last night was the return of a firm fixture in the NFR calendar with the 10th edition of our fabulous friends Jesmond Joggers anniversary invitational - 6K around the Town Moor. And we knew it being their 20th year, they were going to pull out all the stops. And they did - with a beautiful shower to finish off the evening 💦

Thanks so much to all the JJs for your friendship and allyship, it means so much to us. We love this event. And thank you to all the amazing organisers and volunteers, who braved those conditions! 👏

Congratulations to our Julia Whitehall for taking second female. And we may also have scooped the vet female prize too 🏅 Congrats to all our runners, amazing runs and a fabulous celebration of our clubs coming together!

💛 Glasgow OUTRun 2026 💜

WHAT a weekend we’ve had north of the border with our amazing sister club Glasgow FrontRunners as they hosted OUTRun. One of our absolute favourite events of the year - a beautiful, somewhat undulating, 5 mile run around Kelvingrove Park. An amazing atmosphere, community, and all held together so fabulously by the effervescent (even at 8am)

This is truly the Frontrunner event of the year with so many Frontrunner clubs visiting, we had so much fun at the welcome drinks and the ceilidh. What an incredible weekend, and we can’t wait for 2027. Thanks so much to all the organisers and volunteers!! 👏 🌈 ❤️

Everyday, and especially today, we all at NFR stand up in solidarity with our trans and NB members and the wider local community as the ECHR guidance on single-sex spaces comes into being. We’ve been in conversation with our base at Gosforth Leisure Centre and no changes are occurring with our all-gender changing village - and they remain steadfast allies to us as a club 💕 . We will always continue to fight for the rights of our trans and NB members, friends and community - and know NFR will always be a safe and wholly inclusive space for you 🌈 ❤️
